Suitable from 3 months old, it's lactose and sugar free, and the tube's built-in gum-massaging applicator lets you apply and soothe in one go — no cold spoons, no fingers in a cross baby's mouth. 10ml tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRather than numbing the gum like anaesthetic gels, this teething gel forms a film over the sore area — a physical barrier that helps relieve the pain and discomfort of a tooth pushing through. The soft-bristled applicator tip massages the gum as you apply, which most teething babies find soothing in itself. It's classed as a medical device rather than a medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSqueeze a pea-sized amount onto the applicator and gently massage over the affected gum. Apply preferably after meals and before your baby's sleep to help the film build up and stay put — use 3 to 4 times a day as needed. Rinse the applicator and replace the cap after each use, and read the leaflet before first use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen do babies start teething?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost babies cut their first tooth around 6 months, but anywhere from 3 months to after their first birthday is normal. Telltale signs include heavy dribbling, chewing everything in reach, flushed cheeks and sore red gums. A high temperature isn't caused by teething — if your baby has a fever or seems unwell, speak to your GP or health visitor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ashton \u0026 Parsons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57729947959683,"sku":"4080586","price":4.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1006\/9282\/0355\/files\/71uxx9A5pWL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1786013858"},{"product_id":"ashton-parsons-teething-powders-20-sachets-1289","title":"Ashton \u0026 Parsons Teething Powders Tincture of Matricaria from 3 Months - 20 Sachets","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAbout Ashton \u0026amp; Parsons Teething Powders\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe teething powders parents have passed down for generations, still made to the traditional recipe: each sachet of fine powder carries a tincture of Matricaria (German chamomile), used for the relief of teething pain and the sore, tender gums, flushed cheeks and dribbling that go with it.
