You are destroying your baby’s cychology, just think about what if your mother do this to you? If it is so necessary and baby is not cooperative then yes we can do this couple of time but I don’t do this twice a day forever, this can destroy my baby’s soul

This was shared 8 years ago. 8 years later , its saving us a lot of headache. always wondered how to brush my sons teeth. He always screams and kicks. this will definitely do the trick. Thank you

This is so helpful lol. I worked as a dental assistant for years and was like “i will always be soooo thorough with my kids!” fast forward to having a ten month old……… this helped TREMENDOUSLY. To those saying it’s abuse, what’s abuse is not brushing your child’s teeth and letting them decay and then dealing with painful teeth and speech issues.

Oh my gosh.. Thank you so much for being so real..

This should not be on KZbin!!!!!! There are many different ways then wrestling a kid down with grown force. -- forcing it with discomfort. Also if this is not handled with care - this video can teach parents wrong and harm / hurt kids more based on body on not adjusting their body weight properly when sitting on the child. Really unprofessional to see this method

Isn't this traumatizing to the child😮

He is gonna HATE brushing his teeth when he’s older.

This is ridiculous!!! Thats toeture for a little child... what kind of doctor are you? No adult will even like to be put in this abusive position.... Best way is to find ways to get the child little by little to cooperate

Dont brush the teeth, apply bjj techniques and all will go excellent!

Thank you for this! How about toothpaste? How do i get my son to spit out? Worried if he'll make it a habit to swallow.

thas soooo baaad :(

OMG. Thanks so much. I'll yry it on my 36mo. 😢😊

You wouldn't let your baby sit in a soiled diaper because they didn't like their butt changed. It's needs to be done.

We sit around the table and brush our teeth together as a family after breakfast/dinner, so that our 1 year old can see that we brush our own teeth too. It takes time though.

Looks about right to me lol thank you, I thought I was doing something wrong. My kid doesn’t let me brush his teeth anymore after I had to give him liquid Tylenol because he caught a cold. Now anytime I get near his mouth he doesn’t let me and if I’m a little successful he reacts the same way, fighting and crying the whole way 🤷‍♀️ It’s a terrible feeling having to worry about the his future dental health and feeling helpless and doubtful about it because he won’t cooperate. Thank you for helping me figure something out.

Saya menyesal tidak membiasakan merawat mulut anak sedini mungkin, efeknya sekarang usia 1tahun susah sikat gigi. Mingkem dan menangis

My toddler is usually cooperative with the bottom teeth, but it’s so hard to brush the upper front teeth because she gets squirmy and this video clarifies why. So helpful to know this technique because I don’t have to rely on my husband to pin her down.

This absolutely does not work with a 97th percentile kid 😂 we’re not going to torture our son with this method anymore

This is exactly what my daughter does!

Wish i watch this video sooner. My 2nd & 3rd kids don't like when i brush their teeth, end up they have teeth problem.😢.

Thank you! This worked, I've been struggling with my 2 year old for a few days now. Even though she was crying, this had to be done. It's abuse if you don't get those teeth clean. No harm came to her, thank you you're a lifesaver. God Bless you and your family!

Thank youuuu for this!! A lot of videos just explain the process but actually seeing how it’s done helps so much.

I am a dentist from Switzerland and woud like to draw your attention that this is how NOT to do it However, I am grateful for the video as iti is now being shown (not by me) at congresses as a negative example.

Fabulous video and to add, nothing to eat or drink after except for water! ❤

I want this 😢

Vaya vaya tonterías 😢 Esto no es necesario.para nada .si los críos no consumen azúcar no hace falta hasta los tres años.ahora y es evidente q las mamás tienen q controlar el consumo de chuches😢 Resto es absurdo 😢

Omg, my 2yo is JUST LIKE THIS! It's such a struggle, I need my 10yo to help me 😩

That’s absolutely horrible

this is crazy, i thought something was wrong with me the way my 13 months baby yells while i am trying, and i give up. in fact once he sees the toothbrush he starts running away or yelling. been so worried, happy to see that it is serious business for other mothers too.

This really worked !

Just did the WWE moves and my daughter is like the Undertaker but definitely worked better than my other ideas. 😂

Thanks for sharing. Cos it’s so difficult

How long do I need to brush for? Is just going over all the surfaces enough or do i need to brush them for 2 minutes. Im going to try this putting my finger in mouth cos my daughter bites down on the brush hope this works!

What about the tongue

Is there not a risk of the toddler aspirating when restrained in this position???

Thank you so much for this video. I thoyght my daughter and i were the only ones having this issue.❤

Omg that is child abuse. Just brush your child's teeth normally and with encouragement and praise.

Needed this video! My autistic 3yo struggles with brushing his teeth due to sensory issues. I've often felt horrendous restraining him 😢I used the straddling method not putting any weight on him just securing his arms and sides with my knees and this has been causing him such distress but I don't want his teeth to rot so feel like it was my only option 😢 this method looks more friendly and I can't believe I'm only just finding this method now. Will definitely be using this from now on and hope that is a bit more comfortable for him.

Thanks for this. It takes my husband and I to hold down our daughter so I turned to KZbin for advice. We’ve been brushing her teeth since 5 months and she used to do well, but around 8 months she started putting up a real fight. She turns 2 in 2 months and I’m so sick of the nightly battle Do you have advice on how to floss them, too. I get cavities easily and don’t want her to go through what I’ve gone through.

Thanks! Good to see that one is not alone in this... :D

Thank you for this video we have been trying to do this but my son who is 18 months has been biting me and really fighting , this gives me some better instructions on how to get in there . Thank you !

as a dentist, and mother of 3 please dont do that !!! the child will develop anxiety. make it fun and negotiate it slowly, it will not happen over night but should not take more then couple days to get the new routine in place. And if you have to put them under sedation o fix some cavities - so be it.

Thank you for sharing. We always struggle with brushing, she's 17 months and I have always had to pin and wrestle her down to brush them (morning and night). I feel awful but she leaves me with no choice. OR I tickle her a lot! lol! 🤣🤣

Seems really weird baby is crying too much..

Thank you, we've been doing this for two weeks now. At the beginning our daughter of 17 months cried a lot. Now she lies down between our legs herself as she understands what is going to happen. At the end she finds it takes to long and still acts out a little. But I am very happy how quickly she is getting used to it

Im laughing in solidarity and the fact that i can painfully relate. 😢😢😢😂😂

He is same like my kid

I think this is very scary! 😢

Dad nation.

This is the only way to brush my special needs babba teeth :D
