It hurts!: Tooth eruption starts at approximately 6 months of age and continues until 12 years old. 20 "baby, " or primary teeth grow, followed by 32 adult teeth. Thus, you get a tooth for every week in the year. It can hurt when a tooth pushes through the tissue, so symptoms are pain, tenderness on the tiny ridge, swelling, redness, will not eat, crying and crankiness. Use numzit teething gel or others.

Teething symptoms: The most common symptom of teething is chewing on objects. Other reported symptoms are red or swollen gums, irritability, decreased appetite, loose stools, mild temperature and/or swollen lymph nodes. The most important thing to remember teething is a natural process and all humans go through. Provide palliative care for what ever symptoms, if any, your child experiences.
