I'm having a hard time with Scooter too - he loves licking up his toothpaste, but hates the brush in his mouth! I tried the finger brushes too, but they are too big. I just find I can only brush the outsides of his teeth by lifting his lips, and can never get inside before he (and I) have had too much!
Any advice? Am I just supposed to put my foot down and force him to let the brush in there?
