Anyone use have one for their toddler?

I went to buy Izzy a new toothbrush, cos 1 has disappeared and the other she has ruined scrubbing things in her nursery with it!

Anyway I got her a disney electric one (well replaceable battery power) - I thought she might enjoy it making a noise etc cos with the normal brush she is either fab and brushes her teeth herself really well (normally twice she does her own) but when I try to give them a good clean at night its hell!

Has anyone else tried this?

Lottie had one (til the batteries ran out and I never replaced them) and she loves it, but Abbie on the other hand can't seem to stand the sensation. She wont even hold it once it has been turned on.

I would maybe try leaving it a while and trying again later

Sorry I should have said I haven't tried it yet - what I said is with the normal brush
'll rephase it cos it does read like how you read it!

I was going to get and electric brush ages ago for my LO when we 1st started having problems with the teeth brushing. But they all said 3yrs+ (he'd just gone 1 at the time) anyhoo, I thought i'd leave it a bit longer then seen they do them in mothercare (aimed at babies) but since them he's been ok'ish with his teeth, he does it to a certain extent then I try my damdest to get in there after

Anyway - after rambling on!! lol He is so intrigued with mine and loves to play with and brush his teeth with it, and tonight I found we are getting a lot further than we are with his own brush so i'm going to get him one tomorrow

The one I got Zee was £5 in Sainsburys - they dont have changeable heads but you can add batteries if it goes flat
So you just change the brish after 3 months as usual - so not too bad price wise

Tried it tonight and it was love AND hate normally she wont open her mouth but she opened wide for the brush and let me do the fronts, but got a bit annoyed at the backs, luckily it works fine off too!

So I reckon it might work well!

Wil had a buzzy brush from Mothercare until the head got trashed by him chewing on it. I am just waiting on the heads coming in stock at Mothercare in a few weeks then he will be back to using it.

Mothercare also do a Summer Infant one that you can get replacement heads for.

Ohh I'm glad its working

We got one yesterday, with Tigger on and he loves it - it was about £6 too - an OralB one.
He does a bit himself and then actually allows me to do it too, so were getting somewhere

With regards to the 'heads' on them, I suppose now I know that it works well for us, in 3mth I may invest in one with interchangeable heads on. I just didn't fanct forking out loads if he wasn't going to have it anywhere near him

hannah uses mine and we just swap heads.

but I am going to invest in her own character one

i really struggle to get evans done he never used to mind but now he jst clamps his mouth shut and wont let me near i physically have to hold him down which is making him hate it more

the dentist said not to worry as long as he chews it sometimes but i have a total teeth phobia where i cant stand my teeth not being brushed so im the same with evan i want him to have perfect teeth

so i might try one of these see if it interests him
