It's made by Curaprox, the Swiss oral care brand known for its exceptionally soft toothbrushes, and is designed for use from your baby's very first tooth until around four years old.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy soft matters for babies\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBabies and toddlers have sensitive gums, especially when a new tooth is coming through. A brush that's too stiff can be uncomfortable or even painful, and a baby who finds brushing unpleasant will quickly learn to clamp their mouth shut. Curaprox's approach is the opposite: make the brush so soft that brushing feels comfortable, so your baby learns early that it's nothing to fear. As Curaprox puts it, a super-soft toothbrush builds trust and encourages children to cooperate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it's designed\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4,260 CUREN® filaments:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unusually fine (0.09 mm) and densely packed, so the brush stays ultra-soft while still giving plenty of cleaning surface to remove plaque from tiny teeth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall, rubberised head:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sized for a baby's mouth and covered in a soft rubberised finish to reduce the risk of bumps or injury while you brush.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRounded handle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shaped to fit comfortably in both a child's and a parent's hand, and designed to keep brushing pressure to a minimum.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-slip material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy to hold securely, even with wet hands at bath time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBright colour combinations:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nine fun two-tone combinations to make brushing feel more like play.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to brush your baby's teeth\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBefore teeth:\u003c\/strong\u003e After feeds, gently wipe your baby's gums with a soft, clean, damp cloth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrom the first tooth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Start brushing as soon as the first tooth appears, twice a day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eToothpaste:\u003c\/strong\u003e Curaprox follows European Academy of Paediatric Dentistry guidance of a rice-grain-sized smear of children's fluoride toothpaste (1,000 ppm) from the first tooth to age two, moving to a pea-sized amount from two to six.
