Abstract

Authors’ conclusions: although the evidence is limited, there appear to be signs and symptoms associated with primary dentition, especially gingival irritation and drooling.

Reviewers’ commentary: primary tooth eruption seems to be related to common symptoms such as drooling and gingival irritation, but it is less clear that it is the cause of other symptoms that appear in common diseases of infants.
