Why do children often drool

Patient's question:

What's going on from the beginning to now, why are there more and more? Is it a disease? Honestly, drooling, more and more. Past treatment and effectiveness: No matter what kind of assistance: How can it be stopped?

Doctor's answer:

Especially after 4 months, the baby has already started teething. The nerve shock during teething, as well as the practice of chewing, will force a significant increase in saliva secretion. This often manifests as the baby's chin constantly dripping with saliva and the bib becoming completely soaked, which can be very frustrating for parents. In fact, this is a normal phenomenon. We call the occurrence of drooling at this age stage "physiological drooling."
