Caring for baby's oral cavity plays a very important part too. It helps to set a stage for a healthy mouth and to prevent oral thrush (a very common infection among infants)
Ive practice very strict oral care for my baby since birth. Very easy steps to follow to maintain a healthy oral cavity:
Equipments: Cotton, luke warm water
Method: 1)Just lie your baby on your lap or put her flat on the bed, 2)roll cotton onto your index finger, 3)dipped cotton into luke warm water, 4)start cleaning your baby's oral cavity in a circular motion and repeat the same steps with another cotton wool each time.
I usually use filtered/ boiled water to clean my baby's oral cavity. There are plenty types of oral cleaning solution in market used for oral hygiene, but to me, i think water is already sufficient.
Things have changed, gotten more and more advanced, whereby i have encountered some very new oral hygiene sets for baby while strolling in the baby shop.
This is the very cute oral hygiene kit that i have purchased in Georgetown Baby house for less than RM 30.00. consists of 3 different types of oral cleaning stick for different ages. I have no intention of buying this, but the cuteness of the cleaning sticks has actually caught my attention.
I did a bit google on this particular brand. Farlin is a originated from Taiwan and they are quite specialise in full range baby products from strollers, bath essentials, baby hygiene and so on.
Instructions behind the packaging. Apparently I have skipped the stage 1 tongue cleaner as i only use cotton wool and water on oral cavity. It also comes with a safety guard plastic thingy to be applied to hygiene sticks from stage 2 onwards.
This is how it looks like after i removed the packaging. The square liked plastic thingy is the 'safety guard' for the hygiene stick. Quite cute right?
This is how it looks like after i attached the safety guard to the hygiene stick. The safety guard is to prevent the whole stick entering the mouth which will result in injury. As your baby will be able to hold things themselves from 6 months onwards. Too cute to be true :)
And my cutie with the stick.
Conclusion:

Conclusion:
- Packaging is way too attractive that leads you to the cashier. Practical of not, I would give it a 6/10 maybe.
- My cutie enjoys biting it more than serving it purposes.
