Teething is a natural but challenging phase in a baby’s development, marked by the eruption of their first teeth through the gums. This process can cause discomfort and distress for both the baby and their parents. As your baby begins teething, finding effective ways to soothe their discomfort becomes a priority.

Understanding Teething Teething generally begins around six months, but often can start earlier or later. As the teeth push through the gums, babies may experience symptoms such as Swollen and Tender Gums - The area where the teeth are emerging can become red and swollen. Increased Drooling - Teething often stimulates saliva production, leading to more drool. Irritability and Fussiness - The discomfort from teething can make babies more irritable and difficult to soothe.
