Teeth?

Question

So baby girl is teething! And we are coming up on her 6 months, she's showing all signs of being ready to start on big girl food, and I'm wanting to do this right.  
My question is, should I also begin brushing her gums/teeth when we start food? And how? Any specific products you recommend? Should we go to a dentist, or wait? 
Thanks y'all in advance!

Answer

I had big cheeks as a baby. That plus my somewhat messed up jawline would allow food to get stuck between my gums and my cheeks. I would definitely at least before bedtime use a soft rubber finger brush with a little water to get in that area and fish out any extra food.

Answer

Get the banana baby toothbrush and let her chew on it. It's meant to get her used to the nubby texture. Then use it with just water as an actual "toothbrush" once she's cool with that, get an actual baby toothbrush and use it.

Answer

We started with a damp washcloth when he started solids, wrapped it around my finger and rubbed his gums and tongue.
