Caring for your Child's Teeth
Even before you can see them, primary teeth are developing under the gums of an infant. Primary teeth begin to appear at six months. Even though they eventually fall out, taking care of primary teeth is very important because they reserve space in the jaw for permanent teeth to come in correctly. For your infants, even before your child's first tooth appears, wipe his or her gums with a clean, wet cloth after each feeding. This will help remove excess food and bacteria, and will acquaint your child with daily oral care. After teeth appear, usually around six months, use a soft bristled toothbrush and gently brush your child's teeth with warm water.

That was a really nice advice. I was uneducated when I had my first baby.
