ReplyDeleteHere in the UK we have something called Anbesol, it's in no way natural and we only ever use it when the tooth is about to break through. It's a liquid and it totally numbs the gum completely. We use it as a last resort but it has saved our sanity a few times in the middle of the night when the poor babe is inconsolable with the pain.
