Description

What Is Dentinox Teething Gel?

Dentinox Teething Gel is a clinically proven treatment designed to soothe and relieve teething pain in babies from 5 months and older. It contains two active ingredients – lidocaine hydrochloride, a mild local anaesthetic that gently numbs sore gums, and cetylpyridinium chloride, an antiseptic that helps protect against infection.

When used correctly, Dentinox Teething Gel provides targeted relief within minutes, helping babies feel calmer and more comfortable during teething.

If your child is experiencing any of the following symptoms, they may be teething:

  • Sore, swollen, or red gums

  • Flushed cheeks or slight temperature

  • Rubbing their ears frequently

  • Excessive dribbling

  • Chewing on toys or fingers

  • Irritability or restlessness
