Guest guest Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Tom's of Maine is an all natural, keto-friendly toothpaste that you can find at most grocery stores and health food stores. They even have kid-friendly ones like silly strawberry, too.

I have to be careful of him not to swallow too much due to aspiration issues, but when we just brush with a wet toothbrush it doesn't seem to be as effective. Thanks so much!

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 I use Arm & Hammer as well. suggested it for my little 22 month old. I can't get a toothbrush in her, so I use a facecloth over one finger and get in that way to clean her mouth.
