Bickiepegs Teething Biscuits

Bickiepegs Teething Biscuits have been a British favourite for almost a century. They were first made in Scotland in 1925 and have continued to be handmade in the factory ever since. Bickiepegs are designed to help babies with teething. The shape is designed so as to allow the baby to chew the peg using their full range of teeth. While the biscuit is edible, the primary purpose of the peg is to provide something safe and hard to bite on. Bickiepegs are normally used from around 6 months old onwards.

Bickiepegs are 100% natural. There are no preservatives, artificial colourings, flavourings, added sugar, or salt. The main ingredient is Wheat Flour, Wheat Germ, and Water. The pegs are suitable for babies approaching teething age which is usually around 6 months. The pegs are also suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Bickiepegs come in boxes of 9 pcs weighing 38g. A new Bickiepeg should be given to your child for each session. Do not let your child chew the peg for more than 20 minutes. If the peg becomes soft, dispose of it. Note – although your child may occasionally swallow a piece of Bickiepegs, they are not primarily designed for eating. If the biscuit does begin to break up, dispose of it at once. Do not give your child Bickiepegs all day long. Give a gap several hours between sessions.

Before giving your child a Bickiepeg, check that it has not been damaged in transit. Never give your child a broken or half-used Bickiepeg.

Thread the ribbon through the hole and tie the Bickiepeg to the child’s clothing (not far from the child’s mouth). Do not tie it around the neck.

Do not dip a Bickiepeg in any liquid or sweetener. This will help cause the stick to deteriorate quickly and will require disposal.

If your child has trouble holding the Bickiepeg themselves, you may help to hold it for them and allow them to gnaw it. Do not tug too hard while they are biting on it, as it may put unnecessary pressure on their teeth.

After 20 minutes, end the session and discard it. Do not re-use a Bickiepeg that your child has already enjoyed.

Never leave your child unattended with a Bickiepeg. Closely monitor their use.

Once the package is opened, store remaining Bickiepegs in an airtight container to prevent them from spoiling.

Bickiepegs are designed to fit the shape and size of a teething child’s mouth. The shape is specially designed to allow the child to bite using both the front and back teeth at the same time. This improves the development of the chewing skills required for your child to move from liquids to solid food. The Bickiepegs have been baked for hardness. This provides the strong surface required to allow teeth to cut through the gums. It also helps alleviate the pain associated with teething and can lead to strong, straight teeth with adequate spacing.

The length of time your child should use Bickiepegs will vary depending on their individual development. A child will typically start teething around 6 months of age. You may continue to use the biscuits until the teeth have appeared and developed. Just make sure your child does not become overly dependent on Bickiepegs for comfort – they are not designed as a general pacifier. Some children take several years to teeth fully. If you become concerned they have been using Bickiepegs for too long, talk to your a healthcare professional.

Bickiepegs are a safe non-prescription food-based product suitable for teething children. You should not use a Bickiepeg if it has already been used or has gone soft. To prevent them from going soft, store in an airtight box after opening. Avoid letting your child become over dependant and attached to Bickiepegs. They are not designed as long-term pacifiers. If more than one child is teething, do not let them share a Bickiepeg or pass it around.

While Bickiepegs are edible, they are not intended as food. If your child does swallow part of the Bickiepeg, then replace it. Do not allow them to continue eating it like a biscuit. Be careful that your child does not chew or swallow the ribbon that holds the Bickiepeg to the clothes.

Bickiepegs are hard-dried biscuits that aid with the teething process and the development/shaping of the teeth and jaw action. Your child will actively gnaw the Bickiepegs. If they struggle to keep hold of the stick, you may hold it for them. Bickiepegs contain no active ingredients and achieve their purpose through mechanical action.

Ashton & Parsons Infant’ Powders, on the other hand, is a traditional herbal medicine that helps with relief of the teething pain, sore and tender gums, flushed cheeks, and dribbling. In some cases, parents may decide to use both products – Bickiepegs to improve the development of the teeth and jaw and Infant’ Powders to help reduce the pain experienced by the child. Some children do not like the taste of powders. Bickiepegs are more suitable in these situations.

A range of alternative teething biscuits are also available on the market. Some of the common alternatives include “teethers”, “baby bio teething biscuits”, “little teethers”, and “Heinz Teething Rusks”. Each has its own features, texture, and taste. Some brands offer edible biscuits too. If you are unsure what is best for your baby, have a chat with your healthcare professional.

Bickiepegs are a safe and effective way to allow babies to teeth. The shape and strength of the pegs provide the required exercise that allows the jaws, teeth, and muscles to develop properly. Available since 1925, Bickiepegs have been proven to be effective by families for over five generations. Doctors and healthcare professionals have continued to recommend Bickiepegs due to the effects they have witnessed over many years of practice.

Bickiepegs are made by hand using all-natural ingredients and are suitable for vegans and vegetarians. They are also suitable for children with dairy allergies. Gluten is present, so they are not suitable if a gluten allergy exists.
