Silicone Teether Beads - Did you know section

Teething used to be considered (wrongly) a cause of death, as many children died in the first years of life, at the same time as teething occurs. The tendency in the past to attribute serious disease to teething was so prevalent that in 1842 teething was the registered cause of death in 4.8% of all infants who died in London under the age of 1 year and 7.3% of those between the ages of 1 to 3 years according to the Registrar General's report. The same was happening in the US.

Ironically, while teething is a natural process which creates little more than discomfort, some methods for relieving teething pain have caused serious harm and even death. Old remedies for teething include "blistering, bleeding, placing leeches on the gums, and applying cautery to the back of the head". In the sixteenth century the French surgeon Ambroise Paré introduced the lancing of gums using a lancet, in the belief that teeth were failing to emerge from the gums due to lack of a pathway, and that this failure was a cause of death. This belief and practice persisted for centuries, with some exceptions, until towards the end of the nineteenth century lancing became increasingly controversial and was then abandoned, although as late as 1938 an Anglo-American dental textbook advised in favor of lancing, and described the procedure. In the first half of the twentieth century, teething powders in the English-speaking world often contained calomel, a form of mercury. It was removed from most powders in 1954 when it was shown to cause "pink disease" (acrodynia), a form of mercury poisoning.

About Teeth – Teether Beads - Did you know about infant teeth

The infant teeth tend to emerge in pairs – first one lower incisor emerges, then the other lower incisor, after which the next set begin to emerge. The general pattern of emergence is:

• Lower central incisors (2) at approximately 6 months
• Upper central incisors (2) at approximately 8 months
• Upper lateral incisors (2) at approximately 10 months
• Lower lateral incisors (2) at approximately 10 months
• First molars (4) at approximately 14 months
• Canines (4) at approximately 18 months
• Second molars (4) at approximately 2–3 years

Milk teeth tend to emerge sooner in females than in males. The exact pattern and initial starting times of teething appear to be hereditary.[10] When and how teeth appear in an infant has no bearing on the health of the child.

Pulling on the ears is another sign of pain: the pain in the mouth throbs throughout the baby's head, so they pull their ears believing that it will provide relief. Mild rash can develop around the mouth due to the skin irritation caused by excessive drooling or dribbling

Sensory Activities Info Section - Silicone Teether Beads

Engaging in sensory activities is beneficial in several ways, as it can help with:

• Stimulating the brain, creating neutral pathways and improving sensory processing systems
• Improving social skills as communication and co-operation
• Improving co-ordination, as well as fine/gross motor skills
• Calming children down when they are agitated

Try a range of activities to stimulate all of the five senses – touch, smell, taste, sight and hearing. Try small activities and evaluate what works well, and what should be avoided based on the individual child. For touch, signt and hearing you can use silicone beads  - they have a particular touch appeal , as they are soft and comfortable to the touch. Remember, sensory activities will be beneficial for all of the children in your care. Children will often seek out sensory activities if none are provided and you may find them in the sink/toilet playing with the water, squeezing and smearing paint, banging toys, shredding paper, card etc. So it’s better to provide a chew toy made of silicone teether beads instead of allowing them to reach unsafe toys. Pulling down displays searching for Blu-tac is also a sensory seeking behaviour you may see.

Having accessible activities fulfill these sensory needs will hopefully reduce the inappropriate activities.

Examples of appropriate and directed sensory activities should be incorporated into their daily learning: gloopy play for smearing, water play, sensory Silicione beads play, playdough, wet and dry sand, tough spot with paper to shred, leaves, pasta or similar for children to pick up and drop (visual stimulation), mixing paint and mark making, safe space (tented area with cushions) to include sound and light cause and effect toys and books

Food Grade Silicone Beads

Food-grade silicone beads are beads made from silicone rubber that has been specifically tested and approved for contact with food. This means they are non-toxic, safe for babies, and BPA-free, making them ideal for teething toys, necklaces, pacifier clips, and other baby accessories.

Here’s what you need to know about food-grade silicone:

Key Features of Food-Grade Silicone Beads:

1. Non-Toxic & BPA-Free:
   • Food-grade silicone is free from harmful chemicals like BPA (Bisphenol A), PVC, phthalates, lead, and other toxins commonly found in some plastics. These chemicals can leach into the body and cause health problems, so food-grade silicone teeether beads are a much safer option, especially for babies who put everything in their mouths.
2. Soft & Durable:
   • The beads are soft enough for babies to chew on without causing harm to their gums or teeth, making them great for teething. At the same time, they’re also very durable and will not break easily, which is crucial for ensuring your baby’s safety.
3. Hypoallergenic:
   • Silicone is naturally hypoallergenic, which means it’s less likely to cause an allergic reaction compared to other materials. This is especially important for babies with sensitive skin or those prone to allergies.

How do Amber teething necklaces work

Amber teething necklaces are a popular alternative remedy used by many parents to help soothe teething discomfort in babies and toddlers. The idea behind amber teething necklaces is based on the natural properties of amber (a fossilized tree resin), which is believed to have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. Here's a breakdown of how they work and what you need to know about them:

How Amber Teething Necklaces Work:

1. Release of Succinic Acid:
   • Amber contains a compound called succinic acid, which is believed to have anti-inflammatory properties. The theory is that when the amber comes into contact with the warmth of the baby’s skin, it releases small amounts of succinic acid, which is then absorbed into the body.
   • The succinic acid is thought to reduce inflammation and ease pain, potentially helping with the discomfort caused by teething.
2. Soothing Effect:
   • Parents who use amber teething necklaces often report that their babies seem calmer or less fussy during teething episodes. The theory is that the succinic acid might have a mild sedative effect, helping babies feel more comfortable.
3. Natural Alternative:
   • Amber teething necklaces are often viewed as a natural, drug-free alternative to other teething remedies like gels, creams, or medications. Many parents prefer them for this reason.

While many parents report positive results with amber teething necklaces, scientific evidence supporting their effectiveness is limited. Some studies have shown that succinic acid can have mild anti-inflammatory effects, but there is little research specifically on whether the amount absorbed through the skin from a necklace is enough to have a noticeable impact.

Amber necklaces are likely to be more of a placebo effect for some babies, while for others, they may actually help soothe discomfort due to the warmth and the slight compression from the beads.
