Tips for brushing baby's teeth

* If your baby won't open his mouth when it's time to brush his teeth, then try putting the brush in YOUR mouth - babies love to mimic whatever Mum is doing!

* Open your mouth wide and sing a musical scale (we recommend trying this one in the privacy of your bathroom ONLY!). He will either try to copy your singing - or he will laugh - but either way, he will have opened his mouth!

* Sit your baby in the most comfortable position for both of you - try standing or sitting behind your baby as he looks up. This is an excellent position to adopt, because it makes it very easy to reach all parts of his mouth.

* Be gentle - it isn't necessary to brush firmly at this stage and it may just put your baby off having his teeth brushed altogether
