Teether

Is it safe to use a teether for my baby? 

Most babies begin teething around 6 months of age when their primary or milk teeth begin to erupt from their gums. This causes intense pain, swelling and tenderness in their gums. Chewing on objects with different surfaces or textures can provide them relief but may also increase the risk of choking hazard or infection. Natural teethers for babies come as a safe alternative to provide relief to teething gums. So, yes, it is safe to use a teether for kids.  

But there are a few things you should keep in mind to ensure your baby’s safety. Make sure that the rattles and teethers you give to your baby are made with food-grade and non-toxic material. Additionally, use a soft teether for baby without any hard surface, sharp edges or small parts that could break off easily and pose a choking hazard. Next, like any other baby feeding accessory always clean it before and after your baby’s use.  

Tips to follow while using a teether for kids 

Using baby teething toys can be a great way to relieve your baby’s sore gums during their teething journey. Here are some tips that you should follow to ensure it’s used safely and effectively: 

1. Choose natural teethers for babies 

Since teether is something your baby will be chewing on, it’s essential to choose one that’s made with wood, organic cotton, natural rubber or food-grade silicone or EVA. Whether you choose a wood, water filled or silicone teether, just ensure that the material is certified toxin-free and food-grade.  

2. Carefully inspect the design 

Secondly, look for a soft teether for baby designed without any small parts that might break off and pose a choking hazard. It should be appropriately sized, easy to grasp and have a textured surface. Additionally, look for vibrant colours and attractive shapes that will catch the eye of your little one.  

3. Always keep it clean 

Most importantly, you must clean all your baby’s rattles and teethers before and after every use. You can wash them with warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly to ensure they are safe for your baby. Additionally, check for any wear and tear, cracks or damage while cleaning it and replace it if you find any damage.  

4. Cool it for extra relief 

When it comes to teething, they say cold is gold. This is because a cooling sensation helps numb babies’ sore gums and brings down the swelling, if any. So, the best teethers are often those that can be refrigerated (not frozen) for 15-20 minutes and provide extra relief to your teething baby.  

5. Round-the-clock supervision 

Whether you have given a water filled teether to your baby or a wooden one, you must always supervise your baby while they’re using it. This is to ensure they use it correctly and don’t bite off or choke on any parts. It will also help you analyse whether your baby is liking the teether or not and you can accordingly decide to give them a different one.  

6. Have multiple teethers in rotation 

Another best practice to keep in mind is having several teething toys on hand so you can rotate them. This will ensure your baby has a steady supply of cold and clean teethers and if they get bored with one, you can offer them something different.
