What toothbrush should I use for my 6 month old? No toothpaste?

Hello, My baby turned 6 months old last week, still no teeth. I was told about a baby toothbrush, do you have one to suggest? I can't imagine any toothpaste at this age? Thanks in advance!

Good morning, ma'am,

I refer you to this link for all the details concerning oral hygiene. This site is an invaluable resource!

Any baby toothbrush, with very soft wires, is adequate.

For toothpaste, it will be when the teeth start to grow :) there are toothpastes without fluoride specifically for babies.

Sincerely,

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
