GOOD HABITS START AT AN EARLY STAGE. BRUSH HE FIRST TOOTH/TEETH WITH A ULTRA SOFT BRUSH DESIGNED FOR BABIES, USE NO TOOTHPASTE. WHEN THE CHILD IS OLDER AND CAN SPIT, USE PASTE MADE FOR YOUNGSTERS.
NEVER PUT ANYTHING BUT PLAIN WATER AT NIGHT IN A BOTTLE/SIPPY CUP BEFORE BED TIME AND REALLY LIMIT SUGAR CONSUMPTION. GET CHILD ACCUSTOED TO THE DENTIST EVERY 6 MONTHS BY MAKING THEIR FIRST VISIT TO THE DENTIST ABOUT THE AGE OF 1 YEAR--HE CAN SIT ON MOM'S LAP AND OPEN WIDE FOR THE DENTIST.

Never prop a bottle on a baby. Wipe the babies teeth after bottles with a damp cloth and when old enough help them brush their teeth, You need to take your baby to the dentist for the first checkup after the first birthday and then every 6 months for the rest of your life. If you see any signs of decay see the dentist sooner that every 6 months if needed.

Brush them with a very soft brush and clean water only.
Delay starting toothpaste as long as possible, and when you do start, try to get hold of some WITHOUT fluoride.
No, fluoride is NOT good for kids' teeth, that's a misconception deliberately started by one or two industries that produce vast quantities of fluoride as highly toxic waste products.

Just be sure to start cleaning them as soon as they come through, not much else you can do really apart from not giving too many sugary drinks and sweets!!!

don't put baby to bed with a bottle, or if you must put only water in the bedtime bottle.
