Q: My daughter will be 3 next month. She loves to brush her teeth. I try to teach her to spit the toothpaste out like mommy. She swallows it and then spits. Of course nothing comes out because she already swallowed. Can this harm her and any ideas on how to get her to actually spit the toothpaste out?Yes I do use childrens toothpaste. And I put less than a dime size on her brush.

A: Hello,Choose a children’s toothpaste that does not contain fluoride. I have also switched to all natural toothpastes as I have discovered that many of them contain artificial sweetners? Who knew?!?!If your child gets too much fluoride, she will get white spots on their teeth. This is called fluorosis and the spots will not go away. My dentist recommends only giving fluoride drops to my son every 2-3 days (instead of everyday) because he has seen an increase in fluorosis since everyone is pushing fluoride so much.Pick a pediatric dentist and be sure to ask at your visit. If you are giving drops and your daughter is swallowing the toothpaste, you want to be sure and know what he/she recommends.As for the spitting out… can you put a cup in the bathroom and see if you can make a game out of spitting it into there? At 3, they definitely do their own thing! Good luck!Also, I use floss picks to do my kids teeth. Much easier than trying to cram my fingers in their little mouths.
