Any tips on how to get this off my son’s teeth?

He’s 18 months old and fights having his teeth brushed so much. The front of the bottom are almost impossible to get and I noticed this build up recently. I’ve tried flossing and wiping it with a rag, can’t seem to get that off no matter what. Is it tartar? Is he too young for the dentist to do a proper cleaning? I’m so worried about it

Edit: he has been to the dentist before. I was asking if they will bother cleaning baby teeth. I took him in January and they barely looked in his mouth for 5 seconds. I feel like they could have caught this earlier if they looked a little better
