Brushing your baby's teeth is an important part of their health, and having the right toothbrush makes it easier.
We create our baby toothbrushes with soft bristles and easy-to-hold handles. This helps clean gently and effectively, keeping your baby comfortable.
For parents who want convenience, our toothbrushes are easy to hold. They come in different sizes for every stage of your baby's growth.
When should a baby start using a toothbrush?
You can start using a toothbrush for your baby as soon as their first tooth comes in, which usually happens around 6 months.
A great idea is to get them used to brushing early on so they can develop healthy dental habits right from the start. Plus, it keeps their little teeth clean and their gums healthy!

What kind of toothbrush should babies use?
Nuby designs its toothbrushes specifically for your little one’s comfort and safety. Our products offer gentle, effective cleaning while making the brushing experience fun for both parents and babies.
Here are a few key features to look for:
- Gentle Bristles: Our infant toothbrushes feature soft bristles that are gentle on delicate gums and tiny teeth.
- Small Head: The brush should have a small, rounded head to easily reach every corner of your baby’s mouth.
- Easy-Grip Handle: Choose a comfortable handle that is easy for parents and babies to hold. This helps encourage independent brushing as time goes on.
- Safe Materials: Choose toothbrushes made from non-toxic, BPA-free materials to ensure your baby’s safety during use.
- Age-Appropriate: As your baby grows, use toothbrushes designed for their specific developmental stage to promote effective brushing habits.
Using a toothbrush made for your baby will help them feel comfortable. It will also encourage good brushing habits from an early age.
With Nuby, you’re choosing high-quality, safe, and thoughtfully designed toothbrushes that support your baby’s oral health every step of the way.
Is a toothbrush or finger brush better for babies?
Both toothbrushes and finger brushes have their benefits, and the choice depends on your baby’s age and preference.
Finger brushes are great for newborns and younger babies, allowing you to gently clean their gums and emerging teeth while giving you more control.
As your baby grows and gets more teeth, switch to a soft-bristled toothbrush. This helps them learn to brush by themselves and keeps their teeth clean.
What happens if you don't brush baby teeth?
If you skip brushing your baby’s teeth, plaque can build up. This can lead to cavities or tooth decay, even in baby teeth!
This might cause discomfort or even more serious problems later on. Plus, healthy baby teeth help guide their adult teeth, so keeping them clean is important.
