What is a teething stick?

Many parents will buy some teething sticks or biscuits in the shape of teething sticks for their babies when their babies start to teethe, to promote their teething. In fact, the teething sticks used by babies are generally shaped like finger biscuits and are relatively hard, because only hard things can grind the gums, and the nutritional value of biscuit teething sticks is also relatively high. So what are teething sticks like?

Teeth sticks help the eruption of deciduous teeth and correct the phenomenon of biting the nipple, while also training the baby's oral chewing function in a timely manner. Most baby teeth erupt between 4 and 10 months, and sometimes as late as 12 months. Generally, a one-year-old child will have 6-8 teeth. During the eruption of deciduous teeth, the baby's saliva volume increases, he drools, likes to bite hard objects, puts his fingers in his mouth or bites his mother's nipples, etc. These phenomena are manifestations of abnormal sensations caused by the compression of the gingival nerves by the deciduous teeth before they erupt, indicating that the young deciduous teeth are trying to overcome the coverage of the gums. Therefore, during this time, the baby can be provided with some teething biscuits to help the deciduous teeth erupt and correct the phenomenon of biting the nipple, while also timely training the baby's oral chewing function.
