Hi, this has been on my mind for sometime now, and I wanted to ask you
all a few questions. I have read an article at 'TEETHING'

which says:
A variety of home treatment measures can help relieve some of your
child's teething symptoms. The most effective of these are infant
formulas of ibuprofen (such as Advil) and acetaminophen (such as
Tylenol). Also, it helps some babies to chew on cool objects, such as
teething rings or frozen wet washcloths.
Teething gels, used to numb the site of tooth eruption, are generally
not recommended as primary treatment. These products usually contain
benzocaine, or sometimes lidocaine, which may be harmful if swallowed
frequently and in large doses. However, talk to your health
professional about whether he or she recommends moderate use of these
products.

While it must be true, I wonder what you have to say about it. Do let
me know!
