Among them, in the bite test, Ange Giraffe Teether (HKD 79, made in Korea) and Edison Mama Kamikami Baby Banana (HKD 80, made in Korea) had insufficient bite resistance and could not withstand bite force from babies aged 18 months or less, and the Edison Mama Kamikami Baby Banana even failed to meet the requirements of the European toy safety standard EN71-1. The volume of the end part is too small, and it is easy for young children to swallow into the mouth which can caused suffocation. In terms of chemical substance detection, 2 models detected nitrosamine compounds and / or nitrosable substances, of which 1 sample Nuvita Romeo Natural Massaging Teether 7020 (HKD 139, made in China) detected has total more than 8 times from the maximum limit recommended by European standards for Nitrosamines or Nitrosatable substance (maximum limit: 0.1 milligrams/kilogram).

6 Points to prevent potential risks of using teethers

  • Carefully read the product instructions and warnings, and clean as instructed.

  • Before and after each use, wash with mild soapy water, then rinse with water.

  • Carefully inspect children while they’re using it. If any damage or liquid leakage is found, discard it immediately.

  • Do not put liquid teether in the refrigerator ice tray. The low temperature not only can easily hurt children’s mouth, but also cause the outer layer of toothpaste to burst.

  • Do not hang teether on the child's neck with a rope or strap to avoid accidents.

  • If congestion occurs in young children, send them to hospital immediately for medical treatment.

Love it!! It’s easy for my baby to hold and the smart design prevents her from putting it too far into her mouth. It seems to act as a teether in addition to being a toothbrush- she chews on it with all parts of her teeth and gums. Grabease has great products!

Perfect for my 2 years old and work really well ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5)

Bought this for my 2 year old. She absolutely loves it. With it being double sided it's much easier to use than a regular toothbrush. I also think it's easier for her to grip, since it's wider than most toothbrushes, and it is work really well.

Finally! Something that works! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5)

If my child could tell you what he hated most in his 15 months on this earth he would immediately say “When mom and dad brush my teeth”. Needless to say we were desperate to find a solution so we wouldn’t have a child who lived at the dentist due to cavities. Ta-da! He now not only let us brush his teeth but he wants to do it himself too!! We have to distract him to take it away! Thank you for creating this product to make this process easier!

Love it, but quite pricey ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5)

I tried so many tooth brushes so far my baby likes this the most. He is able to hold it nicely attempt to brush his teeth. I also own the Grabease spoon and fork and like them a lot. The only down side is the price. There should be no reason why these are so expensive.

Nice concept ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3/5)

I love the idea of this product & also love the other grabease products. Unfortunately I’m disappointed with how quickly the bristles have broken down. That being said, my toddler still chews more than brushes. Given this fact I think it’s more cost effective to buy packs of less expensive brushes.

Matchstick Monkey, solution for baby's teething pain

Matchstick Monkey launched in December 2016, I found it is the best solution for baby’s teething pain. Matchstick Monkey’s founder, Katie Windridge, is mommy to Minnie, Coco and Bailey. At that moment, Minnie was having a bad teething pain, she already had 3 teeth even before three months old. Katie could not find anything to massage Minnie’s sore gums without getting bitten. Minnie had always obsessed with monkeys, thus Katie think if there is a thing that could reduce Minnie’s teething pain and it is a monkey, Minnie must be really happy!! This is when the Matchstick Monkey was born.

And we understand that making decisions on the best products to buy can be difficult when there’s so much choices. Yes, teething products are designed to do the same thing, they all come with slightly different features which can be incredibly confusing for parents! Thus I will proudly tell you why I love Matchstick Monkey so much.
