Yes, the FALSE statement is:

When brushing a baby's teeth, stand in front of the baby and place the toothbrush in the baby's mouth from this position

The brushing should be done from behind the baby or to the side. The two-person, knee-to-knee position illustrated here is an ideal method of performing toothbrushing for the baby.

If it is not possible to have another person assist, the baby should be reclining when the brushing is performed. Another suggestion is to have the child place his or her head in the parent's lap as the parent sits cross-legged on the floor.

Additionally, a baby's teeth should be brushed for a minimum of two minutes to insure that all plaque is removed from the teeth.

The teeth should be brushed with small circular motions with the brush up against the teeth, covering both the inside and outside surfaces of the teeth, as well as the chewing surfaces.
