Question by Sharyl (340)
Is baking soda safe?
Answer by amber33 (1941)
I would not use baking soda on a baby or young child. You can buy a baby toothbrush which usually comes with paste too.
Answer by destinyisntfree (242)
For real young babies, it is best just to use water and a finger brush. Once teeth have developed, a non-fluoride toothpaste is best.
Answer by Maribella (44)
I used baby toothpaste (after the baby had teeth). Before, I used the finger brush on the gum. I do not think baking soda is harmful,only in larger quantities.
Answer by Mary (2095)
Using just water to wipe baby's teeth is okay. There are non-floride toothpastes for infants and toddlers. You can also use xylitol.
