What the AI looks for in Baby Teether Toys
- Solid or sealed construction
- Prefer solid silicone or rubber; if there is a hole, keep it out of water and dry it Water trapped inside hollow teethers grows mold that can't be cleaned out.
- Reach to back gums
- Thin, chewable extensions a baby can steer to the molars Molar teething is often the most painful, and round teethers can't reach that far back.
- Chilled, not frozen
- Refrigerate only if the manufacturer allows it; do not freeze solid Frozen-hard teethers can injure gums.
- No liquid-filled or wearable teethers
- Skip gel- or liquid-filled teethers and teething necklaces or bracelets Liquid ones can leak or puncture, and necklaces carry choking and strangulation risk.

Questions
Why do people find mold inside Sophie la girafe?
Water gets in through the squeaker hole during washing or chewing. Wipe the surface instead of submerging it, and keep the hole dry.
