How to Buy an Amber Teething Necklace

For centuries, amber has been used to relieve pain and discomfort in adults and children. Anecdotal evidence suggests that Baltic Amber--fossilized resin--imparts medicinal benefits due to its makeup. Amber teething necklaces, popular in Europe and Asia, have been discovered by parents all over the world as a substitute for pain medicine for fussy babies. Here's how to buy an amber teething necklace.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Shop for an amber teething necklace at Wondrous Gems or TeethingNecklace.com to find a style and design you like (see Resources below). Read the buyer testimonies at Wondrous Gems to get an idea of what to expect from your amber teething necklace.

2. Look for an amber teething necklace with a magnetic clasp. This will make it easier to put on and take off the teething necklace. Consider one of the artisan-designed amber teething necklaces at the Neccies Etsy shop (see Resources below).

3. Rinse the amber teething necklace with warm water and allow it to dry before use.

4. Place the amber teething necklace under the infant's shirt or clothing against his skin. The amber stones need to be in contact with flesh to relive teething pain.

5. Prevent the child from pulling on or holding the necklace. If the necklace string were to break, beads could present a choking hazard. Amber is a natural material and could break under pressure from the infant's teeth.
