Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has any great advice, tricks, or stategies on
getting a 21 month old to let me brush his teeth or get him to do it
himself. Do you think this is too early to try? I'm getting concerned
about his dental care and he will NOT let me or anything in his mouth.
I don't want this to become an "issue" for him so I haven't "forced"
the attempts too much. Any ideas???
