Teething gel?

slhood16 · February 2011

Does anyone like the teething gel? What brand do you use? Or do you use anything else to make them feel better.

Thanks!

I have only used Hyland's Teething Gel because it doesn't have a numbing agent. Baby Orajel can cause LO's to choke because it numbs their throat.

Have you tried anything else for relief?

We use Oragel Nighttime formula, our pedi says as long as we use it sparingly its perfectly safe and we do find that it gives some relief. Also, try giving your LO a wet washcloth, DS loves that more than any teething toy.

We use the Hylands teething gel also, but at night we use a natural remedy called Camilia. It's got similar ingredients to the old teething tabs but is in liquid form. Seems to work well for her.

we use little teethers teething gel. we had tried orajel but LO absolutely hated it and screamed every time we put it on. little teethers soothes the gums but they also don't choke when they eat, i guess because it doesn't numb the throat.
