Olababy Mouthing Mitten for Teething Relief (2-Pack)
5.0 (1 verified reviews)Why it works
Textured silicone soothes sore gums while protecting hands from chewing damage, and because it is worn it stays put instead of dropping like a hand-held teether.
Details & benefits
Babies chew their hands raw before they can hold a teether. In the months before grasp develops, hands are the only teether available, leading to chapped skin, irritation, and even eczema flare-ups.
The Mouthing Mitten wraps the hand in soft, food-grade silicone with textured soothing surfaces, so mouthing continues (it’s developmentally normal) without skin damage. Because it’s worn, not held, it stays with baby instead of landing on the ground.
Proof it works: Recommended in Olababy’s guides on hand eczema and scratching, among the most-read baby-care answers on our Journal.

FAQ
What is a teething mitten and how does it work?
It’s a soft silicone mitt your baby wears on their hand, with textured soothing surfaces to gnaw on for gum relief. Because the mitten is worn rather than held, it can’t be dropped or thrown like a handheld teether, a real advantage before your baby has a steady grasp.
What age is a teething mitten for?
A mitt teether shines in the early months, when gums ache but hands can’t yet hold a toy reliably. Our silicone teething mitten fits wrists from 3.5" to 4.7" and comes two to a pack, so there’s a spare while one is in the wash.
Will it protect my baby’s hands from drool?
Yes, that’s a quiet bonus. Constant mouthing can leave little hands chapped, and the mitten keeps a soft silicone layer between skin and drool. It rinses clean and is dishwasher safe (top rack).
Is this safe for my baby?
Yes. Olababy feeding products are made from 100% high-purity food-grade silicone with no fillers, free of BPA, PVC, lead, and phthalates, and tested to FDA food-contact standards.
How do I clean and sterilize it?
Silicone products are dishwasher safe (top rack) and can be sterilized in boiling water or a steam sterilizer. Air-dry fully before storing.

Our material
“Food-grade silicone” is a purity standard, not a marketing phrase. Olababy uses 100% high-purity food-grade silicone with no fillers, free of BPA, PVC, lead, and phthalates. Unlike plastics, silicone is inert: it doesn’t leach chemicals when heated, sterilized, or chewed on, and it stays soft on developing gums and teeth. Every batch is tested to FDA food-contact standards, and every product is dishwasher-safe.

Why parents pick this
The teether they cannot drop: it is on their hand
Teething often starts at 3-4 months, but the grasp needed to hold a teether does not develop until 5-6 months. In that window, babies chew their hands raw while every conventional teether hits the floor. These teething mittens are worn on the hand, so the hand itself becomes the teether. It cannot be dropped because it is on their body.
From day one, the silicone teething glove also replaces cotton scratch mitts that soak through with drool. Chill it in the refrigerator for extra relief, flip it inside out to rinse or run it through the dishwasher, and adjust the soft wrist strap from newborn through 6-month wrists. Two per pack.

Saved my son's hands from eczema flare-ups
“My 4-month-old was chewing his hands raw before he could hold a teether, and his eczema on the backs of his hands was getting worse from all the drool. Got the mint 2-pack and it's been a game changer — the texture actually seems to soothe his gums, and because it's worn like a mitten he can't fling it across the room like his other teethers. I toss one in the fridge for extra relief when his gums are really bothering him. Only downside is it took a couple days for him to stop trying to pull it off with his other hand, but now he doesn't even notice it's there. Dishwasher safe too, which matters a lot at 2am. Wish I'd bought this in the newborn stage instead of week 12.”
