Infant teething advice
| |||||||||

"Dr. Carroccia, any advice on teething?" |
|
Sore gums from
teething often occur
for a few days at a time between six months to age three. Babies often get relief from a clean teething ring, cool spoon, cold wet washcloth or toothbrush. Chilled teething rings or rubbing a clean finger on the sore gum area often helps, too. A great friend of mine gave her eight month old daughter a toothbrush to play with. This novel approach can begin to establish good habits that children will take with them into adulthood. That little girl loves brushing and coming to see Dr. Tony professionally now that she is three. For more answers about your baby's dental care call us at (931) 648-3233. |
