How to ease the discomfort of the baby with the arrival of the first teeth

Indeed, the birth of the first teeth is usually something very painful for most children. Ilana Marques, pediatric dentist at the IGM Odontopediatria clinic, says that many children can suffer from teething, but this can be avoided and even remedied.

To avoid the painful process, Ilana recommends:

• Gum massage with fingertips;
• Use of soft teethers;
• Use of teethers with ice water;
• Stimulation with solid foods that act as massagers, such as raw carrots, apples, pear pieces.

According to her, all this can help in the process of tooth birth. In case of pain, when the child is already complaining of discomfort, the specialist recommends the application of therapeutic laser, an option for those who have access to a pediatric dental service. “After one application, the child already has immediate relief,” she says. Another option, according to the professional, is the use of a gel based on hyaluronic acid, which also helps relieve pain.
