SAHM's of toddlers (tooth brushing?)

silly question but when do you brush your toddlers teeth?

my ds doesn't love it so we always do it in the bath (but that is every other night ) and the other days we do it at random times in the morning. i'm just wondering if i should have a set routine with it.

thanks!

I'm not a sahm, but she brushes when I do when I'm home or with JT when he does. I think it helps get her more into it. I let her brush my teeth and then I brush hersChat Icon Then I sneak in my own brushing when she's not lookingChat Icon

We have no routine. DD loves when I brush her teeth (as of the last week or so), so I brush her teeth numerous times a day! Chat Icon

I brush Julia's teeth before we go out, and then before bed at night, I pretty much do it the same time every day.

the only reason i put sahm was cause i figured working moms probably do it in the mornings and/ or at night and i just do it at any point in the day.

I'll send her right over! Chat Icon

DD actually hated when I tried to brush her teeth with a regular (child) brush. But when I started using the finger brush (which I thought was too "baby" for her - but clearly I was wrong!) - she started loving it!

Re: SAHM's of toddlers (tooth brushing?)

its a hit or a miss. I make sure I scrub the hell out of them though since I don't want his inhaler meds sitting on them all day and night.

Sometimes I have to practically sit on him...other times he lets me get the "sugar bugs" out of his mouth.

We brush teeth in the morning and I really try to get him to brush at night. It's a challenge and he won't let me do it at all. I'm good as long as I can get something.

After Breakfast and at bedtime.

DD Hates it so it's always a battle but I am hoping soon she'll give in.

I brush her teeth every night before bed and every morning when we wake up.
I just do it when I'm brushing my teeth so I never forget.
I was wondering about spitting though?
I've been trying to teach her to spit the toothpaste out but it's not really working.

We do it different times in the morning Chat Icon depending on our plans for the day. And we do it again at night before bed. If she gets a bath that night then we do it then. Otherwise we will brush our teeth with her and I find that helps then she laughs and wants to brush hers.
