do i need to start to clean ds's teeth? he's got six now--two on bottom, 4 on top. he's still exclusively breastfed.

what do you do? wipe with gauze or brush? use anything or no (ie : water, paste?)? twice a day or once? i haven't done anything yet.

thanks!

now that we're doing solids, i let him chew on a wet washcloth while i'm cleaning him up after a meal (distraction!). during a diaper change (which is now next-to-impossible with his current gymnastics), i give ds a toothbrush to chew on.
