I have a 13-month boy and bought him soft bristle toothbrush. i wonder what are the ways to safely clean them before putting it inside baby's mouth?

Brushing baby teeth: This is a great time to start instilling dental care! You can use a soft cloth to clean baby's teeth. When using a toothbrush make sure it is infant sized. Use only infant toothpaste that does not contain fluoride.
