DDs teeth, look like they are starting to go yellow at the base! We brush her teeth every day, although she still wakes for milk in the night. She enjoys doing her teeth so it isn't rushed or anything.

Don't really know where I am going wrong?

How many times a day should we be doing her teeth? I was going to make an appointment with the dentist when I next go, which is a few months, should I take her before that?

Has she had a lot of antibiotics? They can discolour teeth.

No, she has had one lot a few weeks ago but that is it.

how does she drink her milk at night? Milk has quite a high sugar content I think?

She has it from a bottle. I know beakers are recomended from 12 months but she doesn't have the patience in the middle of the night for a beaker!

She is on full fat cows milk if that makes a difference?

Hardly ever has juice, just occasionally as a treat or if she is constipated.
