10 Month Old Has No Teeth, Gum Care?

[NE90]

My 10 month old son has no sign of teeth yet. He drools quite a lot, touches his ears a lot, wants to chew everything in site but it's been this way for a while! I just wanted to ask a potentially stupid question, seen as he's eating a lot of food now, should he be getting his gums brushed or freshened, or do I only do anything once he gets a tooth?

Thank you

Hi! I was told no brushing until a tooth comes through, but I dont see why it would do any harm if you used a really soft one just to get him used to the brush in his mouth? Or I know places do oral wipes x boots.com/brush-baby-teethi...
