I use Petrodex and baby toothbrush-as soft as you can find. Siu Pao tolerates brushing teeth after a year of doing it. He will run to his bed and lie down annd wait for me to start brushing when he sees me preparing his toothbrush. I just started out with putting some Petrodex on to the toothbrush and have him lick it and praise him lots after for the first few days. Then I have him lie down in his bed and lift his 'lip' and brush one side and then turn him over to the other side and continue to brush. I used to have my husband hold him but it didn't work well. It works well when I am all calm and acts like I am very confident and sure and he is all comfortable in his bed. |
