Electric toothbrush...

what would you say the minimum age is? I know they say 3yrs but then most things do. I am getting Riley a Jake one from Disney and want to get Lou one too, chances are he will just use it to tickle his tongue lol x

I don't know. I was going to get my kids one each as a stocking stuffer with toothpaste for them and floss (along with chocolates/candy & presents) lol

Hmm not too sure really...I would imagine it is safe enough for him to use, maybe it says 3+ because anyone younger may not understand how to use it in which case you can still get him one x

As long as he is supervised with it I'm sure he will be fine. Like princess says it might just be because they wouldn't really understand how to use it x

I'm getting Lucas one because he's asked for one but I brush his teeth anyway. I'll probably use it alongside a manual just incase it's a little harsh on his tiny pegs for everyday use.

Just be careful the bristles arent to hard (even for Riley) The worst thing about electric toothbrushes are that kids dont realise they still need to "brush" with it, even some adults think it is ok to set the electric brush on their teeth and thats it, nope you still need to move the brush around to get a good clean.

Sorry got carried away there (its the Dental Nurse in me lol)

Thank you ladies, I brush there teeth for them anyway as all Louie wants to do is suck the toothpaste off lol. I thought maybe it was 3+ because of small parts. I will keep their normal brushes as well just incase they are too hard/don't like them x
