Question

At What Age is Drooling in Babies Normal?

Answer

Drooling in babies usually begins around 6 months of age, as this is when they start teething, and the discomfort of the gums stimulates saliva production. Normally, the amount of drooling in babies will improve as they grow older, usually stopping around the age of 2. However, if a child continues to drool after the age of 2, it may be caused by diseases such as tonsillitis, glossitis, pharyngitis, or tonsillitis, and it is recommended to seek medical examination early.
