TEETHES Meaning and Definition

  1. Teethes is the third person singular present tense of the verb teethe. The term "teethe" is derived from the noun "teeth" and refers to the process of an infant's first teeth, known as "baby teeth" or "milk teeth," coming through the gums.

    When a baby is teething, their primary teeth are starting to grow beneath the gums and gradually make their way to the surface. This process typically begins around six months of age but can vary from one child to another. During teething, the gums may become swollen, red, and tender, causing the infant to experience discomfort and pain.

    The baby may exhibit signs of teething such as increased drooling, irritability, difficulty sleeping, loss of appetite, and a tendency to chew or bite on toys and other objects to relieve the pressure. Parents often use teething rings or other cold objects to soothe the baby's gums. It is important to note that teething does not cause fever or more severe symptoms; thus, if these appear, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional.

    Teething is a natural and necessary process for the development of a child's mouth and should not be confused with tooth decay or other dental conditions. It is generally a temporary phase that lasts until all the baby teeth have emerged, usually by the age of three. The appearance of these primary teeth marks an important milestone in a child's growth and prepares them for eventual transition to permanent adult teeth.
