took dd to emergency dentist this morning, as she was up all night crying with tooth pain.

turns out she is teething seems her molar is coming through at the back, if you look you can see the white under the gum.

she seems really young for this she is only 4.

also dentist recommended I get a teething ring for her- any ideas for something marginally age appropriate?

aww bless her. at 4 i think she is unlikely to want a teething ring surely?

ice lollies to numb it a bit? some bonjela?

I agree TIY, I mentioned it to her when she asked me to explain what the dentist had said and she said- what like babies have before they know what toys are

Definately on the calpol and bonjela route
