Combination Homeopathic Teething Remedies
Teething remedies in OralSoothe
are very effective in treating teething pain and irritability because they contain key homeopathic, herbal and tissue salts ingrediets.

OralSoothe comes in very fine baby-friendly granule form you can simply sprinkle onto your baby's mouth where they will dissolve easily and be absorbed by the mucus membranes rather fast.
Alternatively you can dissolve the granules in filtered water and give to your baby with a teaspoon frequently (every 15-20 minutes) until relief is noticed.

1. Tooth and gum pain during teething
2. Difficulty in cutting teeth
3. Excessive drooling
4. Irritability, crankiness and crying

Single Homeopathic Teething Remedies
The following teething remedies are often recommended by homeopathic practitioners and can be taken 3-5 drops (or one pellet) under the tongue every 15-20 minutes until symptoms improve, then every 2-4 hours until symptoms are relieved.
A dose should be repeated only if necessary. When your baby is feeling better, happy, playing and eating well, there is no need to repeat a dose.

Homeopathic Teething Remedies
Homeopathic teething remedies are made through a pharmaceutical method called "Potentization," which is the process of increasing the potency of a remedy by a process of dilution and succussion, or shaking. This process is repeated many times in order to achieve the desired potency. The higher the potency, the stronger the remedy and the lower the amount of substance present. Remedies are derived from a variety of natural sources including plants, minerals, animals and are prepared in licensed laboratories under strict quality control. Even if homeopathic teething remedies are safe and non-toxic they should only be taken when indicated according to the principals of homeopathic medicine.
Potency/Dilution Factor
Homeopathic remedies are so highly diluted that do not pose any risk of toxicity. Usually 6C and 30C are given during acute conditions. The higher the potency, the stronger the medicine the less need of dose repetition.
Handling and Storage of Homeopathic Teething Remedies
Keep teething remedies at room temperature and in the dark. Try to keep the container away from direct sunlight, strong odours (including spices and essential oils), electric and magnetic items (Cell phones, TV sets, Home appliances, Computers, etc.)
Seek Immediate Medical Care
Teething symtoms are very mild, if your child is under twelve months of age, make sure to consult with your pediatrician if he or she develops a fever, has diarrhea and extreme irritability. These symtoms can be easily attributed to teething problems by parents, but may also be caused by infections.
