Background: Teething though a physiological process is shrouded by the myths. These myths have made parents believe teething as a pathological phenomenon. Aim: To evaluate differences in beliefs and related practices to alleviate teething symptoms by Non-health care professional parents and parents practicing Allopathy, Homeopathy and Ayurveda. Material & Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed including 208 parents. The survey used a self-administered structured questionnaire containing 17 items divided into two sections. The first part contained twelve questions targeted to evaluate the parents' beliefs about teething associated signs and symptoms. The second part composed of five questions that aimed to investigate parents practices to manage teething problems. Descriptive statistics was used for analyzing the results. Results: In non-healthcare professional parents and those practicing Ayurveda, it was commonly believed that diarrhea was the most frequent symptom associated with teething. In contrast, among parents who practiced Allopathy, inflamed gums were considered the most prevalent symptom during teething. Parents practicing homeopathy rated increased salivation, fever, and diarrhea as equally common teething symptoms. It's noteworthy that parents in all of these groups tended to administer medications to provide relief from teething-related symptoms in infants. Conclusion: Amongst all the participating group, parents believed that diarrhea, inflamed gingiva and fever are the most common symptoms associated with teething. And giving medication to infants for the relief of symptoms was the most common practice for management of teething related signs and symptoms.
