Ashton & Parsons Teething Gel is an over-the-counter local anesthetic-free and sugar-free medical device. Supplied in a 10ml tube equipped with a soft silicone brush applicator, it contains a specialized bio-adhesive formulation enriched with Aloe Vera, Hyaluronic Acid, and Glycyrrhetinic Acid.
Applied directly to swollen gums, it is used in infants aged 3 months and older for the rapid relief of teething pain, gum inflammation, and discomfort associated with erupting primary teeth.
Unlike traditional pharmaceutical gels that rely on local anesthetics (like lidocaine or benzocaine) to numb the mouth, Ashton & Parsons works by forming a physical, soothing barrier:
Forms a Protective Shield: Ingredients like Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and Hyaluronic Acid rapidly create an invisible, flexible film over sensitive gum tissue. This shield protects raw, exposed gums from friction, saliva enzymes, and pressure.
Reduces Swelling & Inflammation: Aloe Vera and Glycyrrhetinic Acid act as natural soothing agents, calming redness and localized heat in the gum tissue.
Massages Sensitive Gums: The integrated soft silicone brush tip allows parents to gently massage the gel directly onto the gums without needing to use fingers, providing instant mechanical pressure relief to sore spots.
Drug & Anesthetic Free: Contains zero local anesthetics, alcohol, sugar, or lactose—making it exceptionally safe for sensitive infant digestive systems and babies with lactose intolerance.
🚨 Critical Safety Warning: The integrated soft silicone brush cap is a medical applicator, NOT a pacifier or a toy.
Never leave the tube in an infant's hands to prevent accidental biting, swallowing of parts, or choking.
Single Patient Use: To prevent cross-contamination of bacteria or mouth viruses, each 10ml tube must strictly be used for one baby only.
Hypersensitivity Check: Do not use if your baby has a known history of allergy or hypersensitivity to Aloe Vera or any of the gel's ingredients.
Check for High Fever: Teething causes mild gum irritation and low-grade flushing, but it does not cause high fever, vomiting, or persistent diarrhea. If your infant develops a temperature over $38^\circ\text{C}$ ($100.4^\circ\text{F}$) or severe diarrhea, consult a pediatrician to rule out an underlying viral or bacterial infection.
Cap Hygiene: Always replace the protective cap firmly over the silicone applicator immediately after each use to keep household dust and dander away from the tip.
The Recommended Dose: Dispense a small pea-sized amount of gel onto the built-in silicone brush applicator tip.
Gentle Massage: Gently massage the sore, swollen area of the baby's gums using the soft brush tip.
Optimal Timing: Apply preferably after meals and right before the baby goes to sleep to allow the film-forming barrier to set and prolong nighttime pain relief.
Daily Frequency: Apply 3 to 4 times a day as needed.
1.Squeeze a pea-sized amount onto the brush tip:Dispense Gel.
Remove the outer cap. Squeeze the tube gently until a small pea-sized drop of gel appears on the soft silicone bristles.
2.Gently stroke the swollen gum line:Massage Gums.
Hold your baby comfortably in an upright position. Use the soft silicone tip to massage the gel gently over the eruption site for several seconds.
3.Wipe the applicator tip and seal tightly:Clean & Cap.
Wipe any excess gel off the silicone tip with a clean tissue, then replace the protective cap securely before storing.
Ashton & Parsons Teething Gel is local anesthetic-free, sugar-free, and exceptionally gentle on infant mucous membranes:
Adverse effects are extremely rare when used as directed.
Mild, localized hypersensitivity reactions (such as temporary gum redness) can occur if an infant is sensitive to one of the botanical components.
Note: If your infant displays signs of an unexpected allergic reaction (such as lip swelling, widespread skin rash, or breathing difficulty), stop using the gel immediately and seek medical evaluation.
Can I use this Teething Gel alongside Ashton & Parsons Teething Powders?
Yes. Because the Teething Gel works as a local physical barrier on the gums and contains no pharmaceutical drugs or local anesthetics, it can be safely used alongside traditional herbal teething powders or infant paracetamol/ibuprofen (if prescribed by a doctor for fever), provided you follow the dosing limits for each product.
Why is an anesthetic-free gel preferred for infants?
Regulatory health bodies advise against using oral gels containing local anesthetics (like lidocaine or benzocaine) in young infants unless under strict medical advice. Anesthetics can be swallowed, potentially numbing the throat, interfering with the swallowing reflex, or causing rare systemic side effects. Physical barrier gels like Ashton & Parsons offer a drug-free alternative.
How should the 10ml tube be stored safely in warm climates?
Keep the cap twisted tightly shut after every single application. Store in a cool, dry place strictly below 25°C or 30°C, away from direct window sunlight, hot kitchen counters, or damp bathroom shelves, and keep completely out of reach of unsupervised children.

Notice: This guide is for educational and general infant care tracking support only. High fevers, persistent refusal to take fluids, severe ear pain, or continuous extreme distress in infants require physical evaluation by a qualified pediatrician. If an infant accidentally swallows a large quantity of gel, displays unusual lethargy, or shows signs of an immediate allergic shock (facial/lip swelling, trouble breathing), stop use completely and seek emergency clinical intervention at the nearest hospital emergency department right away.
