Problems solved by technology

For babies, some existing teething devices are difficult to hold and maneuver during use
Other existing teething devices have proven to be suboptimal in helping babies grow new teeth through layers of overlying tissue, as their size and shape do not fit comfortably in a baby's mouth
Additionally, other existing teething devices have been shown to confuse babies because they have a different appearance, shape and / or size than the baby soothing devices and baby bottle teats that babies are used to

Embodiment Construction

[0024] Referring to the accompanying drawings, especially Figures 1 to 4 , shows the infant teething device of the present invention and is generally indicated by reference numeral 10 .

[0025] Teething device 10 includes a shield 12, a handle 14, a nipple 16, one or more teething bumps 18, and in some embodiments, one or more teething bumps 20.

[0026] The present inventors have determined that the shape and position of a baby's front teeth requires a differently shaped teething ridge than a baby's back teeth in order to best assist the teething process. As used here, a baby's front teeth should include central and lateral incisors, while a baby's back teeth should include canines and molars.

[0027] Typically, the front teeth erupt through the overlying tissue layer in the age range of about 6 months to 23 months, and the posterior teeth erupt through the overlying tissue layer at about 13 months. The teething device 10 is configured for use during the eruption of the ...

Abstract

A baby teething device is provided that includes a shield, a handle depending from the shield, a nipple-like portion depending from the shield opposite the handle, and teething ridges defined on the nipple-like portion. The teething ridges can include a series of generally linear ridges that are substantially parallel to the shield and / or a plurality of concentric teething ridges.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to baby teething devices. More specifically, the present invention relates to an infant teething device having a plurality of teething ridges configured to maximize pressure on one or more predetermined portions of the gum line. Background technique [0002] Baby teething devices typically include one or more surfaces on which an infant or child can bite to relieve the discomfort of teething, and which facilitate the eruption of teeth through the covering of gums and tissues. [0003] Baby teething devices have come in many different shapes and sizes. For infants, some existing teething devices are difficult to hold and manipulate during use. Other existing teething devices have proven to be suboptimal in helping infants grow new teeth through layers of overlying tissue because they are not sized and shaped to fit comfortably in an infant's mouth. Additionally, other existing teething devices have proven to confuse babi...
