Cooling Comfort: The Power of Cooling Teethers for Teething Babies

Teething can be a challenging experience for both babies and parents. The discomfort and irritation that accompany emerging teeth can make little ones fussy and restless. Fortunately, cooling teethers offer much-needed relief, providing a soothing solution for sore gums. 

Learning the effectiveness of gel-filled cooling teethers and how they can provide comfort for your baby can help you make an informed decision on how to handle those fiery gums when teething begins.

What is a cooling teether?

Cooling teethers are teething toys designed to help soothe your baby’s irritated gums during teething via a cooling effect. The best cooling teethers are filled with a special cooling gel that, when chilled, offers a soothing and numbing effect on the gums. This gentle cooling action can reduce inflammation and provide significant relief for your little one.

Among the most effective options are gel-filled cooling teethers that use Nuby’s PureIce™ gel, which stays colder longer than water-filled alternatives, ensuring prolonged relief during teething sessions.

Are cold teethers safe for babies?

Yes, but always make sure to supervise your baby at all times. Even though Nuby’s gel-filled teethers are made with safe, non-toxic PureIce™ gel, it’s important to supervise your baby while they’re using a teether. 

Why choose gel-filled teethers over water-filled options?

When selecting a cooling teether, it’s crucial to understand why gel-filled teethers are superior to water-filled ones. Gel-filled teethers are not only more effective in retaining cold temperatures, but they are also more durable and provide consistent cooling.

Gel-filled teethers are designed to stay cool longer, offering sustained relief that water-filled teethers cannot match. Water-filled teethers may provide initial comfort, but they tend to warm up quickly, reducing their effectiveness. Nuby’s PureIce™ gel-filled teethers, on the other hand, maintain their cooling effect, giving your baby extended periods of relief.

How do you cool a teething ring?

Refrigerate, don’t freeze. While it might seem like freezing a teether could provide more relief, it’s best to avoid this. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), freezing teethers can make them too hard, potentially bruising your baby’s delicate gums. Instead, refrigerate your teether to keep it at a safe, cool temperature.
