I just asked my dentist the other day! She said to brush as soon as you see any teeth at all. She even said you can wipe the gums down prior to any teeth (like others mentioned). She told me not to use anything other than the toothbrush and water - no toothpaste at all until they can spit and even then you only need the smallest amount.

Good luck!
