Hi friends, i've a 6 month old son, and i think that my son is having some teething problems. He's always salivating and puts everything into his mouth, and he has also started crying a lot lately. Is this a part of teething process, is there any way to soothe him? Please advice, it's driving me nuts!!!!!!

Hi buddy.... hey relax man this is not at all teething problem... you know your son is growing new teeth so he will have some itching sensation in his gums... thats why he may bite every toy even in order to reduce the itching.... once teeth starts growing he will be all right... just wash his toys often so that he doesn't get any infection.... take good care of your son...

Some hard rubber made toys are found in baby stores. Generally once babies start doing these, those toys are given and they start chewing or biting them. What are these called? Probably teether. Am i correct?
These teethers can be given to him for some relaxes.

Yes that's normal, you can ask his pedia for some oral ointment/gel for babies. My son's pedia gave him some oral gel but he doesn't like it and we gave him a teether and a pacifier (ask your dortor) to prevent him from putting his fingers/hands in his mouth. Ask your pedia for best solution.
