Help for a Teething Baby

Hi moms. My almost 8 month old daughter has started cutting teeth just a few days ago. she so far has been dealing with it alright (i know it's a long road) but when I got home last night she had a fever. I know they can be caused by teething so I gave her some tylenol and she still had one this morning so I gave her some more. What do you all do to help the side effects of teething as well as the teething? Could use any suggestions - thanks :)

Teeth Brushing Battle

Does anyone have a good method of brushing their toddler's teeth? My son is 16 months and has 14 teeth and he REFUSES to allow them to be brushed. We have tried singing and brushing, having 1 parent hold him down while he other brushes, allowing him to help brush, given him a favorite toy to hold while he brushes, electric toothbrush, elmo toothbrush and paste....none of it has worked. His teeth look gross....HELP!

Help with Tooth Brushing

Does anyone have any tips for getting my 22 month old to let me brush his teeth? I have tried Elmo tooth brushes and brushing my own teeth with him. All he wants to do is suck the tooth paste off and ask for seconds! He won't let me anywhere near his molars. Should I worried he will be getting cavities at this age, even though he doesn't eat a lot of sugar?

When to Brush Teeth

My son is 16 months old and has 16 teeth. Only ones left for him to get are his molars. He likes to "brush his teeth" when he sees mommy and daddy do it. Right now he has a toddler toothbrush and we give it to him with just water on it. I was wondering when he can start to use toddler toothpaste. He is sick right now and his breath smells. Thought if he was allowed to use paste now that would help.
