Teethers: types and features of choice

Updated: 09/11/2020 Baby teethers come in different types, materials, shapes, sizes and purposes. Among the abundance of products offered by manufacturers, it is difficult to make a choice. However, the bulk of rodents can still be classified.

The choice of teether depends on many individual factors - the age of the child, the purpose of the toy, size, color, design. Before making a purchase, you should carefully study the characteristics of the goods and compare them with the needs of the child.

There are several main types of teethers:

• Cooling.
  A product filled with water or a safe gel-like composition inside. This toy cools the gums, relieves pain, and reduces the risk of swelling and itching. To maximize the effect, the cooling chews should be kept in the refrigerator for some time before use.
• Beanbag.
  Differs in a variety of shapes and sizes. The advantage of such a toy is that in addition to eliminating itching in the gums, it promotes the development of fine motor skills.
• Vibro.
  Such toys are powered by batteries, most often equipped with automatic activation - they begin to vibrate when bitten. The vibrating rod massages the gums well, eliminates itching and swelling.
• Pacifier.
  It is made by analogy with a regular pacifier. The manufacturing material must be resistant to external influences so that the child does not damage it when bitten. The inside of the nipple is often filled with water or gel for better effect.
• Book.
  This type of teether is ideal for children whose teeth have already erupted. The durable material can withstand bites, and the bright pictures will captivate the baby for a long time.

Based on the material used, there are three types of rodents:

• Silicone.
  Comfortable, easy to sterilize, no taste or smell.
• Rubber.
  Soft and flexible, they can also be made from latex, both natural and synthetic.
• Wooden.
  Eco-friendly, durable, wear-resistant.

The best classic teethers

Once upon a time, our great-grandmothers, grandmothers and even mothers used soft, durable fabric, such as a piece of towel, as chewers, and men carved wooden figures that fit comfortably into the mouths of children. Today, the choice and capabilities of teethers are huge, but many still lean towards simple and effective products. Below we've selected four classic, quality options that have helped hundreds of parents and children ease the teething period.

4 Lubby Watermelon

The Lubby “Watermelon” teether opens the rating.
It attracts the attention of children and parents with its bright “juicy” design, made in the form of a watermelon slice. Kids love the rich red and green colors, which encourage them to try a new toy. Parents like not only the design solution, but also the practical qualities of the product. The color does not fade over time, the shape is comfortable for a child’s hand, ideal for pre-cooling, and according to reviews, sediment does not form in the filler. “Watermelon” is completely silicone, without plastic inserts, which reduces the risk of injury to the child if he decides to chew on the wrong side. And although most mothers praise the product for its convenience, very young children may find it uncomfortable to hold a slice of watermelon, since there is no handle.

The chewer is made of high-quality EVA silicone and does not contain bisphenol A. The filler is water colored with food coloring. To relieve itching more effectively, it is recommended to put it in the refrigerator for a while to cool the liquid.

Pros:

• Bright attractive design.
• No plastic elements.
• Safety.
• No hard elements.
• Children like it.

Minuses:

• Some children find it difficult to hold.

Teether Lubby Watermelon

3 Dr. Brown's Flexees ergonomic

The holder of third place in our rating is suitable for those who find the “watermelon” option in fourth place too large and bright.
Dr. Brown's Flexees feature softer colors, a smart design and are comfortable for even the youngest babies (recommended from 3 months). It is made of rubber, without any hard inserts or handles, but thanks to its well-thought-out shape, it is easy to hold. A plus is the pimply elements, which parents call “scratchers.” Thanks to them, itching is relieved more effectively; some mothers note that after trying Dr. Brown's Flexees, children prefer this particular chewer to all others. It is also soft, elastic, suitable for holding with two hands, easy to clean, and lightweight.

Dr. Brown's Flexees are created by a dentist and are ideal for relieving itching and developing the front and back gums. But due to the lack of liquid filler, this option is not very suitable for cooling. On the other hand, there is no risk that the seal will break and water will spill out.

Pros:

• Convenience.
• Presence of pimply elements.
• Softness, elasticity.
• No hard elements.
• Minimum weight.

Minuses:

• No filler.

2 Pigeon Educational 7+ months. 13137

Every baby should have several teethers in their arsenal - for cooling, with a textured surface, in different colors.
It’s worth trying the option from the second place in our review – Pigeon “Educational”. Sometimes it is much more effective for a child to attract attention with something interesting, and not just to cool or “scratch” the gums. In this case, Pigeon will help. Made on the basis of a classic ring, it has an unusual design - several elements of different shapes and colors, which allows you not only to massage your gums, but also to train fine motor skills. The model is intended for children from 7 months and is made of elastic material. The ring has three different areas of rigidity, which makes it possible to train your bite.

There will be no problems with cleaning the toy - it can be boiled, treated with special disinfectants, or rendered harmless in a sterilizer or microwave oven. The ring can withstand temperatures up to 120 degrees. Parents praise the product for its wide range of disinfection capabilities, the absence of biphenol A, the preservation of its original shape during long-term use, and its convenience.

Pros:

• Convenience.
• Variety of elements.
• Three sections of rigidity.
• Training bite and fine motor skills.
• Disinfection in various ways.

Minuses:

• Not suitable for cooling.

1 Chicco Fresh Relax

First place in the ranking is occupied by Fresh Relax from the famous Italian brand Chicco.
Chicco – this is what the founder of the brand called his first-born, Enrico, with whose advent Pietro Catelli began producing high-quality and attractive-looking products for children. It was this combination that brought the creator enormous popularity in a short time and helped him enter the world market. The Fresh Relax anti-stress teether is made of two types of materials: plastic and rubber. An interesting bright design attracts the attention of children, the toy is convenient to use, and it also has a cooling effect. The teether is filled with distilled water. Therefore, the child will remain safe if the toy is accidentally bitten or deformed if the liquid begins to leak out. However, this is unlikely, since the materials used are of high quality and resistant to mechanical stress.

The multi-textured surface helps relieve itching of the gums, and the cooling surface relieves teething pain. The rodent can be cooled in the refrigerator. Before use, wash with running water and soap. There is a convenient hole for a child's hand.

Country of origin: Italy. Designed for children aged 4 months and older.

Fresh Relax is loved by users for its comfortable handle, simple but bright design, massage pimples on the surface and cooling function.

Pros:

• Simple but cute design.
• Ease of use.
• The presence of massage pimples.
• High-quality material made.
• Cooling function.
• Distilled water filler.

Chicco Fresh Relax

Tips for use

• Teether should not be a way to speed up the appearance of teeth; give it to your child as needed.
• If swollen gums have become the cause of your baby's severe anxiety and whims, help him by massaging them with your clean finger and putting a special silicone massage attachment on it. This will help alleviate the baby's condition.
• If you purchased a teether, but your son or daughter refuses to chew on it, do not be discouraged. As soon as the need arises, the kids will master the new toy themselves.
• It is very important to always wash the teether with baby soap or baby product before giving it to your baby. Kids often use a rodent as a toy, so it can end up anywhere: on the floor, in food, in a pocket. Strictly maintain hygiene. Dry the toy naturally in the air.

The best teething rattles for teeth

Cooling and massaging the gums is not the only way to calm your baby. An interesting toy that distracts from discomfort can work wonders. A rattle teether will help with this. It will not only interest the baby with its sound effect, but will also help it develop.

Most of these products are colorful, have different textures, and are made in the form of various figures. The four rattle chewers described below have been selected so that customers with different needs can find an option to their liking.

4 Giraffes Rainbow Giraffe

The fourth place is occupied by the “Rainbow Giraffe” - a multi-colored toy, distinguished by a variety of colors and color saturation.
It not only helps to massage the gums, develops motor skills, and doubles as a rattle, but also attracts the child’s attention from the first moments, so it won’t be difficult to accustom him to a new rodent. And all this splendor can be bought at an affordable price. The product is made on the basis of a ring, on which small movable rings of different colors are strung. The baby is interested in playing with them, fingering them, gnawing them. Inside the main ring is a cute little giraffe. The colored rings are an advantage and at the same time a disadvantage of the model - small parts are dangerous for the child, so you will have to make sure that the base does not break and the rings do not fall apart. Another controversial point is the material of manufacture. The toy is made of plastic, which is not the safest or softest option.

Among the advantages of the Rainbow Giraffe, buyers note its convenience and colorfulness, the ability to interest a child from the first minutes, an affordable price tag, developmental capabilities and relief from itching.

Pros:

• Bright interesting design.
• Developmental functions.
• Convenience.
• Affordable price.
• Combines the functions of a teether and rattle.

Minuses:

• Small parts.
• Manufacturing material: plastic.

3 Pigeon Educational 7+ months. 13070

Those who were scared off by the plastic of the “Rainbow Giraffe” should pay attention to the winner of the third place in the selection.
Pigeon “Educational” is made of rubber, has a not so bright, but quite colorful design and several different elements that help the baby develop. The rodent is made in the shape of flower petals to which a semicircular “handle” with three multi-colored rings is attached. When they knock against each other, they make a pleasant sound, although they are soft to the touch. Thanks to its convenient shape, the child can easily hold the teether in his hands, and the absence of hard parts eliminates the risk of injury. The petals are made of different thicknesses, textures and hardness, which allows the baby to choose the best option for himself. The toy helps develop fine motor skills, train the bite, and massage the gums.

Parents praise Pigeon for its convenience, attractive appearance, melodic sound, various elements, and lack of unnecessary details. However, you will have to be careful that the baby does not chew the thin ring.

Pros:

• Convenience.
• Nice sound.
• Soft material.
• Three levels of hardness.
• No hard parts.

Minuses:

• Thin rings.

Teether-rattle Pigeon Educational 7+ months. 13070

2 Happy Baby Silicone teether 20028

Second place goes to the Happy Baby Silicone teether rattle, which has an unusual shape - on the central ball there are protruding “fingers” of different colors and textures.
By feeling these protruding elements, the baby develops fine motor skills, and gnawing on them trains the bite and effectively massages the gums thanks to the relief surface. And since the “fingers” are small, they easily fit into the mouth, so the Happy Baby Silicone teether is worth paying attention to if other shaped rodents do not fit into the child’s mouth. Another important advantage is that the toy is made of silicone. This is a soft, elastic and hypoallergenic material, and, most importantly, non-toxic. The rodent is comfortable to hold – the developers have provided a small handle in the form of a ring. The Happy Baby Silicone teether makes a sound when shaken, and the bright, varied colors attract babies. Unlike the two previous versions of the selection, this model does not have small parts, which makes it as safe as possible.

Buyers note the convenience, beautiful appearance, easy access to the oral cavity, and pleasant sound. Among the disadvantages, it is worth noting the rather high price.

Pros:

• Safety.
• Silicone.
• Develops motor skills, massages gums.
• Easily fits into the oral cavity.
• It makes noise when shaken.
• Has a handle.

Minuses:

• Price.

1 Vulli Giraffe Sophie 616400

The winner of the first place is an option for those who want to buy not just a teether, but a legend.
Sophie is a giraffe from France who has won the attention of even her celebrity parents. Sophie helped raise the children of Jesska Alba, Madonna, Angelina Jolie, and celebrated her 55th birthday in 2016. She can be found in photographs of the children of Hollywood stars and other popular personalities. Like all celebrities, Sophie is highly regarded and not everyone can afford, but despite this fact, she has become popular among ordinary parents. Like a true Frenchwoman, Sophie is simple, elegant, and suitable even for the little ones - it is easy to hold by the long thin legs.

In addition to global popularity, the price tag is also justified by more prosaic characteristics. Sophie is made from natural, completely safe rubber obtained from the juice of the Hevea tree. Only food dyes are used. When pressed, the product makes a pleasant sound.

Important: there are a huge number of fakes on the market, so you should carefully check the product and certificates.

Pros:

• Convenience.
• Attractive appearance.
• Brand prestige.
• Pleasant soundtrack.
• Safety.
• Natural material of manufacture.

Minuses:

• High price.

The best teethers with a cooling effect

Cold is a universal remedy that relieves pain and itching. Such qualities did not go unnoticed by rodent manufacturers. As a result, different cooling options have appeared on the market. Usually these are products with fillers (gel, water).

They should be treated carefully, making sure that the shell is not broken and the filler does not begin to leak out. You can also find chews on sale without fillers, but they can be refrigerated. The effect lasts less time, but this eliminates the risk of water or gel leakage.

3 Dr. Brown's Coolees Watermelon soothing

The teether, number three, belongs to the American brand Dr.
Brown's, specializing in products for newborns. It is made in the form of a watermelon slice and has characteristic colors – red and green. The rodent is suitable for children from 3 months, but due to the fact that it is made of plastic, it is a little harsh. Some parents advise using it for older children when their first teeth erupt, and they are happy to bite harder products. Also, many parents prefer to avoid plastic chewers - this material does not inspire confidence in terms of harmlessness. Dr. Brown's Coolees are dishwasher and freezer safe. Thanks to its triangular shape, “Watermelon” massages well not only the front, but also the back gums, soothing irritation and relieving itching.

Customers praise the product for its bright colors that attract children, durability, cooling ability, comfort and lack of small parts. But opinions are divided regarding the smell - some claim that there is no smell, others scold “Watermelon” for its unpleasant “chemical” smell. From this we can conclude that there is a high risk of buying a fake.

Pros:

• Convenience.
• No small parts.
• Bright colors.
• Dishwasher compatible.
• Possibility to massage the back gums.

Minuses:

• Made of plastic.

2 Bright Starts Caramel Circle

In second place is the Bright Starts Caramel Circle teether.
Outwardly, it resembles a funny colorful toy in the form of caramels woven into a circle. Thanks to the bright colors (blue, yellow, light green, orange) it evokes only positive emotions in the child. A teether with a cooling effect, indispensable when the first teeth are being cut. In addition to the basic properties, it develops imagination, thinking and fine motor skills. Safe, very durable, no moving parts. Made of soft, environmentally friendly rubber, filled with distilled water inside (cold accumulator). Reduces inflammation and helps relieve itchy gums. Does not lose quality after sterilization.

The ribbed surface and convenient shape in the form of a small ring of geometric figures allow you to hold it tenaciously in children's hands. Each caramel has its own relief massage pattern: dots, stripes, lines, spirals.

It is intended for children aged from 3 months to 1.5 years. Country of origin: China. Dimensions 110x10x110 mm.

1 Canpol Babies Dolphin 2/221

The leader of the rating is the Canpol Babies teether Dolphin 2/221.
This is a small dolphin with a semi-ring handle, which is convenient for the baby to hold the rodent. The soft, pleasant color will appeal to those who do not like overly bright colors, and the absence of small details makes “Dolphin” as safe as possible. The product is filled with distilled water, so it is strictly forbidden to put the teether in the freezer, as water expands when freezing, which leads to damage to the toy. Also, the dolphin is not suitable for boiling. The chewer is made of plastic, which may be a disadvantage for people trying to avoid this material. Parents note that the product has no defects, looks high quality, and there are no foreign odors. Despite the material, the teether is quite soft, suitable for very small children.

“Dolphin” is easy to hold and is designed to quickly relieve itching thanks to the ability to cool it. Thanks to its simple shape and the absence of complex parts, the product is easy to clean and does not accumulate dirt.

Pros:

• Simple cute design.
• Nice colour.
• Convenience.
• No small parts.
• Availability of a handle.

Minuses:

• Plastic.

How it all happens

Typically, the teething process begins at six months of age. But sometimes this moment may come a couple of months earlier or later. It all depends on the child’s body. The lower central incisors appear first, then the upper ones. After this, it is the turn of the lateral incisors. Then you should wait for the appearance of four chewing teeth. Now it’s the turn of the fangs; according to many parents, these teeth are the most problematic. And at the very end the second four chewing teeth will appear. Thus, by the age of 2 or 2.5 years, the child will have 20 teeth.

On average, a tooth erupts in about 2-7 days. At this time, the child may refuse food, become more capricious, and have difficulty sleeping. In addition, during the period of the appearance of new teeth, the baby may have a fever, snot and cough may appear, and problems with stool may also occur. If these symptoms last no more than three days, then parents should not have any concerns. But still, it is better to consult a pediatrician, since all these signs may indicate the presence of a viral infection. When the examination shows that all these changes are due to teething, then measures should be taken to relieve pain.

The best teethers with attachment

Washing and sterilizing pacifiers, nibblers, toys and teethers after each fall to the ground is a real challenge for parents. The baby constantly drops and throws something. If at home this problem is solved quickly, then on a walk or on a trip it creates certain difficulties. For such cases, it is worth keeping products with fastenings on hand.

They are attached to clothing or a stroller, which makes life much easier for mom and dad. Many rodents detach, allowing you to attach a pacifier, nibbler, or favorite toy in their place.

3 MamSi Rainbow on holder with clip

The rating opens with the colorful “Rainbow” with an animal pendant (elephant, cat), which not only helps relieve discomfort by massaging the gums, but also helps the baby develop. Beads of different shapes and bright colors help the child develop fine motor skills, focus attention, and provide entertainment during walks and at home. The cord on which the beads are located is antibacterial.

The beads are made from safe plastic, which makes their color rich, and the chewer itself is made of silicone, which is one of the safest materials for teethers - parents don’t have to worry that harmful substances will enter the child’s body during chewing. The toy is without filler, so there is no risk of liquid leaking. The rodent itself can be placed in the freezer, placed in a sterilizer, washed and boiled.

The big advantage of “Rainbow” is the ability to attach it to clothes or a stroller - the toy will not get lost or fall. The rodent itself can be removed and replaced with a pacifier or toy. But it should be remembered that the model has many small parts.

Pros:

• Silicone element for chewing.
• Possibility to attach to clothing.
• Removable chewer.
• Developmental functions.
• Bright design.
• Possibility to sterilize and freeze.

Minuses:

• Lots of small details.

According to parents who have already purchased the product, this is an ideal product. “Strawberry” has a textured surface, which allows you to scratch your gums more effectively and relieve itching. To enhance the effect, the “berry” can be cooled. The clip is quite strong and easily attaches to clothing, which prevents the toy from falling to the ground. Another plus is that the “strawberry” can be removed, and instead of it, another rodent, nibbler, pacifier, or toy can be hung from the holder.

No matter how good, beautiful and high-quality parents consider this or that teether, every baby has his own opinion on this matter. And often this opinion does not coincide with the parents.

Features of care

A teether is an accessory that is constantly in the child’s hands or mouth. Therefore, it is necessary to be careful about the rules for caring for the product.

Depending on the material from which it is made, maintenance may have its own subtleties.

Experts recommend following general rules when handling children's things.

1. After use, the product should be rinsed with water or washed with baby detergent and dried thoroughly.
2. Rodents are stored dried and in closed packaging.
3. Silicone rodents should be sterilized or doused with boiling water at least once every 3-4 days. Silicone products cannot withstand sterilization, so they are simply doused with boiling water. Wooden teethers just need to be washed and dried. They do not tolerate high temperatures and frequent exposure to moisture.
4. Latex and silicone models are recommended to be changed every 1-2 months. Wooden ones are made from tree species with antiseptic properties. Therefore, the products allow long-term use. Their replacement is recommended in cases where cracks, scorches or splitting appear on the wood.

Modern teethers have undeniable advantages and allow you to avoid the use of medications that are applied to the gums to stop itching.

The best teethers are bright, safe and exciting products that will become an indispensable assistant for mom.
