Good evening, thank you for your question!
I do not recommend the use of Orajel in children. The best treatment is acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil). Both medications are given according to your child's weight. Your pharmacist will be able to tell you the volume to administer according to your baby's weight and the concentration of the product you have.
I hope I have helped you and I am available if you have any other questions!
