As babies grow up day by day, parents need to care for and protect them with more heart. With the continuous progress of science and the emergence of various novel products, taking care of babies can become more convenient. One of them is a grinding rod, but when do babies use a grinding rod? It is an issue that parents are more likely to pay attention to.
The use of grinding teeth sticks is mostly done when infants are around half a year old, and the specific usage time depends on the baby's performance. As long as you notice that babies start to like biting things or frequently suck on their fingers, you can use a grinding rod. You don't necessarily have to wait until the baby is teething to use a grinding rod.
Although called a grinding rod, it is not only effective after a baby has teeth. Teeth grinding rods can also help babies who are about to teeter exercise the resilience of their gums and alleviate discomfort during teething. Exercising the resilience of gums is also very beneficial for baby teething.
A small percentage of babies are not interested in grinding teeth, possibly because the taste and texture of the grinding teeth are not suitable for them. Parents can try changing the taste of the grinding teeth. If the baby still likes to bite their own fingers after multiple replacements, there is no need for parents to force the baby not to bite their hands. Just keep the baby's small hands clean, and the habit of biting their hands will ease after the teeth sprout.
The grinding rod also has an advantage, as it is elongated and can exercise a baby's grip and fine motor skills.
