Oral Care for Infants
Experts typically recommend beginning to clean your baby's gums during the first week of his or her life. You can do this with a washcloth or gauze pad or with a specially designed silicone finger toothbrush. As soon as those first baby teeth emerge, you can begin brushing with a baby toothbrush and baby toothpaste. Once your child is ready to start brushing on his or her own, you can purchase a kid-friendly training toothbrush. These products are designed to help kids master proper brushing technique.
Oral Pain Relief For Kids
If your medical provider gives the okay, you can use a topical pain reliever to help ease discomfort associated with teething. For babies, these products typically contain cooling ingredients that produce a tingling sensation that can distract infants from teething pain. You may see some over the counter topical pain relievers, which contain Benzocaine. This ingredient is no longer recommended or considered safe for use in small children/infants for teething pain.
