My 6m has two front teeth coming in.

How and when did you introduce teeth brushing?

And when to register a dentist?

I registered at the dentist when she was about 6 weeks. When you next have a dentist appointment book one for your baby.

You must brush teeth twice a day now your baby has teeth.

Toothbrushes also make great toys and are good for a teething baby to chew on.

My DD’s first tooth is poking through- 5.5months old, so we went to get her a toothbrush today. Will speak to my dentist about when she should go in- I assume she’s way too young but may as well sign her up.

We started teeth brushing as soon as her 2 front teeth were coming through. We stared with a rubber finger toothbrush and just water. They are almost fully through now so we have been to get a proper baby toothbrush and toothpaste to start using from tomorrow!
