Teething

Teething pain usually occurs between 4 months and 3 years of age. Discomfort is soothed by rubbing the gums with a finger, cool wet gauze or a teething ring, which has been placed in the freezer.

Teething

Pediactric-Dentistry-1-cosmetic-dentist-stephen-wolpo-dds-smile-sensations--implants-invisalign-gum-disease-stamford-ctTeething is a normal part of the developmental process. We've all been through it. It is painful and your child can have sore and tender gums from it. Teething pain usually occurs between 4 months and 3 years of age. The discomfort can be soothed by gently rubbing the gums with a finger, cool wet gauze or a teething ring, which has been placed in the freezer. Teething does not cause fever. If your child's temperature becomes elevated it should be addressed as a separate medical issue. You need to contact your pediatrician or family doctor.
