You do it: This isn't going to be easy at first. But you will need to brush them. It won't take much but it is a must. Sing and count and hit each tooth about 10 times. Don't give up.

Brush his teeth: It is very important that you help your son brush his teeth.. Make a game out of it, have him do it and then you brush. Have him pick out tooth brush. Many adult toothpastes are too strongly flavored for kids so use a kid toothpaste. Be patient but persistent. Make it a routine to brush teeth together. He wants to do what he watches you do.
