Use a gingival gel designed for babies

To relieve a painful teething episode, you can rub your baby's gums with a gingival massage gel for babies, such as Pansoral Teething gel: apply a pea-sized amount of gel with a clean finger by lightly massaging, three or four times a day. Read the instructions carefully before use.

Give them a teething ring

A flexible teething ring to chew on allows the child to cut their teeth without injuring their gums. They can be kept in the refrigerator, so that in addition to the pressure they apply to the gums, they have a pleasant cooling effect and relieve pain a little more.

Preventing irritation caused by saliva

It is also recommended that you regularly wipe your baby's face so as to prevent irritation due to saliva.

What you SHOULDN'T do!

Avoid rubbing your baby's gums with alcohol or gels containing a local anaesthetic (as they may be swallowed). Attempting to pierce the gum is also not recommended. You risk injuring your child and causing an infection.
