Cool, targeted relief – with PureIce Gel that chills longer than water-filled teethers
PureIce Gel retains a lower temperature for longer compared with water-filled alternatives and should be chilled in the fridge only, per manufacturer guidance.
A chilled surface helps soothe sore gums so babies can find quicker, more comfortable relief during teething spells.
Supports oral motor development – with multiple textured teething surfaces
Varied textures are designed to stimulate lips, tongue, jaw and both hard and soft palates, encouraging the movements used in early speech and swallowing.
Textured contact points let babies practise chewing and mouth movements, aiding feeding and early speech-related skill development.
Easy for little hands to use – with a key-shaped ergonomic design
Key-shaped form provides several grip points suited to infant hand size so babies can hold and manipulate the teether independently.
Simple grasping encourages self-soothing and fine motor practise while reducing the need for constant parental handling.
