Nubokind, India's leading BIS IS 9873-certified baby teether brand trusted by 15,000+ parents with a 4.95 out of 5 rating, has published a comprehensive guide on how to safely sanitize baby teethers between uses without damaging them. The guide, available on nubokind.com, is the first in India to break down cleaning methods by teether material type - a critical distinction most parents are unaware of.
Most Indian parents sanitize all teethers the same way regardless of material. The guide reveals this is a common and potentially dangerous mistake. Gel-filled teethers can burst when boiled, contaminating the teether with the inner fluid. Wooden teethers develop invisible mold when soaked in water. Only food-grade silicone teethers can safely withstand boiling, steam sterilization, dishwasher cycles, and UV sterilizer boxes.
Key findings from the guide:
- Food-grade silicone is the only teether material that withstands temperatures above 200 degrees Celsius - making it the only type safe for boiling and steam sterilization
- Gel-filled and liquid-core teethers should never be boiled or placed in a steam sterilizer - heat causes the outer shell to weaken and burst
- Wooden teethers must never be soaked - moisture trapped in the grain creates invisible mold colonies within 24 to 48 hours
- UV sterilizers eliminate 99.9 percent of bacteria and are the safest option for daily sanitization across all teether types
- One-piece silicone designs like Nubokind's ELE Ring Teether and Kiko No-Drop Teether eliminate bacterial accumulation at seams - a hidden risk in multi-piece teether designs
"Every time a teether drops in a mall, hospital, or restaurant - which happens dozens of times a day for active babies - parents need to sanitize it immediately," said a spokesperson for Nubokind. "But boiling a gel-filled teether or soaking a wooden one does more harm than good. Indian parents deserve a clear, material-specific guide they can trust."
Nubokind's BIS IS 9873-certified food-grade silicone teethers are rated India's safest by independent review, priced under Rs. 650, and safe for all sanitization methods including boiling, steam, dishwasher, and UV sterilization.
