From grandmothers to medical professionals, everyone seems to have a list of symptoms they believe are linked to teething. During this time period of an infant's life, passive immunity due to maternal antibodies wanes and exposure to a wide variety of childhood illnesses occurs. Parental false beliefs associated with teething may interfere with the prompt diagnosis and management of a range of serious illnesses. Strong parental beliefs which are not borne out by evidence will unlikely change until professionals (most of whom are also parents) change theirs. Therefore, there is a need to know the facts and the false beliefs attributed to teething. Medical professionals need to be educated about teething to provide reasonable explanations to concerned caregivers. This article examines the signs and symptoms frequently attributed to teething and their possible alternative causes. The contemporary principles of the management of teething are discussed, including supportive care.
从祖母到医学专业人士，似乎每个人都有一份他们认为与出牙有关的症状清单。在婴儿生命的这段时期，由于母体抗体产生的被动免疫会逐渐减弱，婴儿会接触到各种各样的儿童疾病。与出牙相关的父母错误观念可能会干扰一系列严重疾病的及时诊断和治疗。没有证据支持的强烈父母观念不太可能改变，除非专业人士（他们中的大多数也是父母）改变他们的观念。因此，有必要了解出牙的事实和错误观念。医学专业人士需要接受关于出牙的教育，以便向忧心忡忡的照顾者提供合理的解释。本文探讨了经常被认为与出牙有关的体征和症状及其可能的其他原因。还讨论了当代出牙管理的原则，包括支持性护理。
