My son is only two months old. So right now he does not have any teeth. My doctor told me I still need to wipe my son gums after each feeding so that he does not have extra milk in his mouth. Then when he gets his teeth in I should take him to see a dentist.
So I have been doing as suggested to me by my doctor. My friend told me about dental wipes and that is what she uses to clean her daughter teeth. She said they work just like brushing but are easier to use when you are dealing with an infant. I though you just brush the teeth when the start to come in. Are dental wipes just as good?

I have a three year old boy. Lately I started to notice brown spots on three of his teeth. At first thought they may have been a bit of food and he was not brushing well. So I started to bush his teeth but the spots are still there.
I made a dental appointment for my son so I will be taking him to see the dentist about these spots in a few days. I am worried that my son may have dental caries though as a baby I never let him sleep with a baby bottle. I also made sure he brushed his teeth each day. What can these spots be if not cavities?

My daughter has a dental appointment to have one of her baby teeth pulled. The baby tooth she needs pulled is not loose but has to be pulled so that her adult tooth will come in. My daughter is upset that she is going to have to have this tooth pulled and she does not want to get it done
I told her that since it is a baby tooth it will not hurt her all that much and her dentist will do everything he can so she does not feel any pain during the process. This seems to be okay for now but I would love some additional advise in case things changes when she has to goes to get her tooth pulled.

My son baby teeth are just not coming in but they have a yellowish look to them. I am worried about the color of his teeth. He had jaundice so I am wondering if that has anything to do with is current teeth color.
I been brushing his teeth twice a day were before I was doing it only once in hopes that would help remove the yellowish coloring. It so far has not helped. I am not sure if this his just his normal teeth coloring or if there is something wrong with his teeth.
