Product Summary

Finding your baby’s first toothpaste can be a difficult. Adult toothpaste is not suitable as it has a strong mint flavour and has too much fluoride, so you can’t share your toothpaste with your baby.

Aquafresh milk teeth was my go to toothpaste when my children were born. There’s no confusion as it says 0-2 years on the packaging, although it can be used in larger (pea-sized) amounts up until your child is six. Remember for babies you only want to use a smear of paste on a small headed brush. (See my advice on the best baby toothbrush).

Aquafresh is a trusted brand, and makes specific toothpastes for different ages.

Don’t worry if you can’t brush your child’s teeth well due to poor compliance, as even a little bit of toothpaste getting onto their new teeth will strengthen the surface enamel and help prevent decay.
