NUK Infant/Baby Tooth and Gum Cleanser with 1.4 Ounce Toothpaste

Works perfect for my little guy he loves The Taste and loves brushing his teeth.

Highly recommend this. FANTASTIC BABY BRUSH This is an excellent baby brush - we bought this for the brush alone - toothpaste will be a nice extra when we start using it (just water and the brush with an infant for now - and baby loves it). He actually smiles and opens wide. This is contrast to using a wet cloth to wipe his gums and teeth which made him cry. It must feel like a baby gum massage or something. The brush is like a large, soft thimble with a mini brush (very soft) on the finger pad. You put it over your index finger and rub it on baby's teeth and gums. From what we read (including from the American Dental Association), you should start some kind of brushing this as soon as baby starts teething, but toothpaste seems optional for infants. TOOTHPASTE We're not using the toothpaste yet, so I hesitate to comment on it - other that you can see from most of the other reviews that the toothpaste is a big winner too.

I wanted to share because I got lucky and I found this! The finger brush has served so many purposes including: 1) makes it easy to brush teeth and gums, which also relaxes him before bed, 2) temporary fix to crying baby in the car, 3) easy way to massage gums during teething especially after they get their first sharp teeth, 4) helps his ears on a plane and driving in high altitudes.... I think this especially helped my baby because he will not take a pacifier and will rarely take a bottle (especially from me). It has worked better for me than a lot of teethers because he likes my finger and I can control it so he doesn't just spit it out or throw it. It still hurts my finger a little sometimes, but nothing like it does without it!

My 1.5 yr old daughter loves the taste which is half the battle. I have no clue if this stuff actually works but its a great starter for her to learn to brush her teeth. I cant give it 5 stars because I feel that this stuff should have some kind of lather or foam that forms when brushing. Its hard for to tell if we're getting all the right spots because it goes on clear. Also, my daughter ends up trying to suck the brush so maybe this stuff is a bit too tasty. I will probably try another product for the next tube.

My baby used a different paste and brush combo at first and she did not like; it was hard to use correctly with her constant squirming. This product duo has been a breath of fresh air! My baby likes the taste of the past and prefers the finger brush so much more than the other styles. She actually smiles and giggles when we use it, I think it tickles her little gums as we brush and she enjoys it. I am so glad to have found a solution, she had 2 teeth by 5 months and is currently popping out her 8th tooth on her 10 month birthday. This little gal is in need of brushing :)

My LO cut her first tooth at 4 months. We didn't use the toothpaste at first since she had not had any food yet (not by any doctor's decree, just being cautious). We just wet the finger brush and wiped all her gums and tooth. Then she got the second tooth and started some food around 5 months. The toothpaste (I tried it) is pleasant and is sweet, but nothing too crazy. We brush her teeth morning and night and it has held up very well (she is 7 months now). The finger brush allows you to get all those gums and around the teeth pretty well. We own a baby tooth brush too, but right now, I prefer this-- especially at night when I am in the dark since it is easier to manipulate.

I can see how this is very convenient when you first start brushing your baby's teeth because there is a lot more control over movement when you're cleaning with your finger instead of a brush. It would have worked best for us around 4-5 months when our baby popped her first teeth but wasn't biting very much. At that point, it would've been a lot better than manually wiping her two teeth with a washcloth. However we bought this when our baby had around eight teeth and at that stage, this didn't really work for us. For one, if our baby clamped down, this would come off in her mouth and sometimes fall to the bathroom floor, requiring extra sanitization. For another, our baby would bite down hard on this because of the rubbery texture. This got very painful very fast - it got to the point where my husband and I were flipping coins to see which one of us would brush baby's teeth on any given night. I recognize that these issues have nothing really do with the quality of the product per se but I just want to let other parents with overly bite-happy babies like ours know what to expect. We're now using actual baby toothbrushes as our baby got used to them faster than we expected and in fact now tries to hold them to brush her teeth on her own.

I started using this about a week ago with my 5 1/2 month old son. He has 3 teeth and is working on the 4th! I was worried about using the brush with his gums being so sensitive with the new tooth breaking through but he LOVES it! The "bristles" are much softer than they appear in the picture. I use just a tiny bit of the paste and start massaging his teeth and gums. He likes to hold my finger and "do it himself" too. Now when he sees me get out the finger brush he gets excited! Hopefully we are setting good hygeine habits for the future! The only downside I have is that the finger brush is a little big for me which is weird because I have rather large fingers for a female. I just make sure to hold onto it with my thumb so it doesn't come off in baby's mouth. It's not enough of a problem for me to reduce my rating though. Happy brushing!

Easy to use cleanser for babies, although they are not the most receptive it is very effective.

Lo que buscaba

Great taste works well. It’s good it has xylitol in it!!

The reason I got this was to get my baby started early on her dental hygiene, and now she looks forward to getting her gums brushed every morning and night. The brush can be a little tight on the finger, but it makes it easy to brush the hard to reach spots in her mouth. She really likes the toothpaste flavour too, and always smiles when she sees the tube.

I don't know if it actually works as cleanser but my son doesn't reject the flaour. The finger brush is a little short so my whole figure gets wet after brushing his teeth.
