Best Answer

The process of teething is when an infant's first teeth begin to erupt through the gum tissue. This is often uncomfortable or painful, and may even be accompanied by mild inflammation. Teething rings are designed for babies to chew on to expedite the eruption, and some are designed to hold a chilled water solution which cools the inflamed gums.
