I believe if your children can hold a toothbrush properly, it's the right time to ask them to brush their teeth for themselves. You might need to help them in the beginning, but once they get it right, your job will be easier.

You can teach your child to brush themselves at about 1 & 1/2 years of age.Till that proper brushing with care is required which can be provided only by the parent.
