My just turned 5 year old has just got her second permanent lower incisor. It has erupted further back in the gum from her other teeth and is so difficult to reach properly when brushing particularly where the tooth meets the gum as the toothbrush won’t fit in the gap between her other teeth.
Does anyone have any advice? I thought about getting a 0-2 years brush just for this tooth for the smaller head but still not sure it will fit between the other teeth. Also thought about adult interdental brush but think it might be too hard for a 5 year’s gums (especially when they are still a little sore from the new teeth eruption).
No problems with the tooth otherwise and dentist aware that it is far back in the gum and not worried so don’t think we need to go to dentist. If I call the dentist expect they will point us towards a hygienist appointment (for £50!) which feels like a big deal for a brushing question for 1 tooth (teeth otherwise have no problems).
Thanks!
