Hello and welcome.
Thanks for sharing your concern.
Please do not be worried if you are sure that the redness is due to erupting teeth.
Give her warm water with a pinch of salt to gargle twice daily after breakfast and dinner.
This should solve the problem.In case there is any irritation or pain then she can apply dologel on the affected area for a week.This should help.
Please let me know for further doubts.
Thanks.
Take care.
