Teethers Recalled by the FDA
February 2006
Before your baby puts another teething ring in their mouth, be sure to check the teether recall list below. If you’re using The First Years/RC2 brand teething rings, the liquid in the teethers may be tainted with bacteria that could lead to serious illness.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a Class 1 recall for the teething rings. That means there is a reasonable chance use of the product will cause serious health problems or death. The rings were sold nationwide from July 2005 to January 2006 at major retailers, grocery, drug, and specialty stores.
The teething rings included in the recall are:
- Disney Days of Hunny Soft Cool Ring Teether - Style #Y1447
- Disney Soft Cool Ring Teether - Style #Y1470 and #Y1490
- Sesame Beginnings Chill & Chew Teether - Style #Y3095
- The First Year’s Cool Animal Teether - Style #Y1473
- The First Year’s Floating Friend Teether - Style #Y1474
Approximately 352,000 of the recalled teething rings were sold in the U.S. For more information, consumers can contact the firm’s service center at 1-866-725-4407.
