Can a baby reach their back molars with this teether?

Yes I think so- I didn't really use this. I bought an emerald teething necklace and had no teething issues

Yes, a baby can reach the back molars but not far enough to gag. This was one of my son's favorites as well as the banana shaped tooth brush. He got his first two teeth at 4 months so we used them a lot.

My 4 month liked it but he was also teething ( now 6 months and has 5 teeth =0(. So, my opinion is it is great for any age especially if they are teething. If the 4 month old isn't teething yet they will be eventually.

Yes, it uses batteries. Yes they are safely in there. I believe it would be fine for a teething baby. I bought it for my two year old granddaughter. She has a 1 year old sibling who also finds it and puts it in her mouth. Have had no problems with it.

It seems like it would work as long as it fits in his mouth. It has a nice soft brush on one side and some small bumps on the other, either of which I would think could work on a baby's tongue.

I dont see why not. I think mine were about that age (maybe 4 months). They are a year now and still love them, it was probably the best teether we found.

Yes, just about anything can be put in it as long as it is age appropriate for your LO. I loved doing frozen peaches and other fruits for my son when he was younger. It was the perfect teether!

I am not sure since my son is still not teething; I thought he was,but nothing is breaking through yet. :) We took it off a while ago because we figured it shouldn't go in a hot bath (since it is activated by body heat) and just didn't put it back on and he hasn't really needed it yet. Sorry I can't be of any help!

No; you can hold her thumb to her mouth but it won't stay there. The opening is very small.

My son is 2 years old and he uses it on the lower setting. The higher one is too strong for him and his tender gums. The hadnle can be a little wide for smaller hands, so at first, He letme brush for him, but then he wanted to do it himself..he likes the littel "music" that declares he's done.

Way too big for her. I'd wait until her adult teeth emerge and then start brushing them with CET toothpaste/brush. That's the best way to prevent tooth decay/tartar/loss.

I don't know but I would not buy them. Baby did not want anything to do with them. Waste of money. you can just wet a piece of washcloth, freeze it and get the same result. He liked the traditional cool teething rings so much better.

At 9 months my baby can reach the back of her mouth with the banana peel style. She is small for her age though so you may want to try one of the other styles that may reach further back. The banana peel handles may get in the way of it reaching that far back on an 18 month old though, but they make other styles that surely would.

Is not very practical for babies so not used it and ended up buying one that could lead to the baby's mouth. I think I'll just use it when my baby has more than one year and may carry its mouth until the nozzle.I did not used it yet

It helps with teething as well. I found it to be pretty much the same idea as the mesh bag just cleaner and safer. I added frozen berries and bananas and it seems to sooth his gums. He rubs it on his gums as well as is able to eat the fruits as it pressed through the holes.

I've used this tip brush on my 14 month old granddaughter's 8 front teeth. She actually opens her mouth when she sees the brush coming to her mouth and then beginnings sucking it, but this is prepping her for the big girls tooth brush. LOL!!! Try it!!!

I have somewhat used it as an actual tooth brush but not using any toothpaste. The rubber bristles are kind of too close together. My now 6 months old baby loves this teether, we even place it on a link and on his carrier.

I don't think it would be effective for someone who actually needed clean teeth. I think it's more designed to develop comfort with oral hygiene routines on the flat teeth babies start out with, rather than thorough cleaning on adult teeth. Also the hole that your finger is supposed to fit in is pretty slim; my finger doesn't fit in it all the way. That's better for a baby because their mouths are so small, if it was bigger it wouldn't be able to brush. But I think it would be difficult on adult teeth.
