Teething Tips

Most babies will start to get teeth around the six months. During the first couple of years they will get 20 primary teeth. When a tooth erupts a baby may experience sore and tender gums. There are some things you can do to help them get through this. You can gently rub your baby’s gums with a clean finger or a gauze wet with cold water. You can also use a small cool spoon to rub on the gums. Talk to your dentist or pediatrician about recommending a teething ring or a numbing salve. Hopefully these tips can help you and your baby get through ‘teething”
