teething biscuit
Baby's gum soother
A teething biscuit is a hard, dry biscuit given to infants to gnaw on while their teeth are coming in.
The firmness provides counter-pressure that soothes sore gums, and the biscuit softens gradually as the baby chews: She gave the fussy baby a teething biscuit to quiet him down.
