1. Buy the children's teether for teeth. The ring in which there is a liquid will help to relieve gum pain. Leave it in the fridge for 5 minutes, but do not freeze at all. Constantly you watch the kid when he holds the teether in a mouth.
2. Rub the child's gums the finger. Or curtail a small piece of a clean gauze into several layers and carry out by this small pillow on the swelled-up gums of the kid. It not only will help to facilitate temporarily unpleasant feelings at a teething and also will clean his mouth, will accustom to daily toothbrushing. Wrap a small piece of ice in a clean rag. Fast movements carry out by a piece on gums. However you watch that ice did not begin to thaw and cold water did not get on a gum and into a throat.
