1. Apply a tiny smear (rice-grain size) of fluoride toothpaste suitable for babies onto the bristles of the Chicco Toothbrush 6-36 Light Blue. 2. Position the toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to the gum line. 3. Gently brush the outer, inner, and chewing surfaces of each tooth using small, circular motions. 4. Ensure you brush the tongue gently to remove bacteria and freshen breath. 5. After brushing, rinse the toothbrush thoroughly with water and store it upright to air dry. Supervise your child during brushing.

The Chicco Toothbrush 6-36 Light Blue is generally safe for use when properly handled. Potential minor issues, often due to improper technique, could include temporary gum irritation if brushed too vigorously. Ensure gentle brushing to avoid any discomfort. If any persistent irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a dentist. Always supervise young children during brushing to prevent choking hazards from detached bristles or accidental ingestion of excessive toothpaste.
