Anyone's little one refuses to brush teeth? How do you make them brush well everyday? When did you start to train them?

We started as soon as the first tooth started appearing, but was only with a damp, soft washcloth at that time to get LO used to it :) Once he had two teeth, we moved on to baby toothbrushes and Jack N Jill fluoride-free toothpaste - safe even if LO swallows! Made it fun with songs, you can refer to YouTube for teeth brushing songs! We then moved on to letting him hold his own toothbrush, and he learnt how to brush while singing songs - now, he requests for it during/right after each bath and brushes his teeth all over until he's done :) We haven't moved on to fluoride toothpaste yet as he doesn't know how to spit yet.
