[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 475914, member: 11791"] You can also offer alternatives to toothbrush... at least for now. Rubbing the teeth and gums, inside and outside, with a dry baby facecloth is better than no brushing at all. Make sure he is eating HARD cheeses ("real" swiss, cheddar, etc.), COLD and in chunks (sticks, not slices). Cheese rubbing against the teeth is also a cleaning impact. Peanuts have a similar effect... but can't take those to school. These were from travel tips I got when in HS (LONG time ago) for what to do when your baggage gets lost and its the middle of the night... [/QUOTE]
