According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention relates to an edible and biodegradable teether-spoon system (100) designed for infant gum relief and early feeding. The system includes a soft teether head (102), a smooth spoon end (104), and an ergonomic handle portion (106) made entirely of nutrient-enriched, plant-based edible material. The composition is biodegradable, non-toxic, and temperature-resistant, dissolving gradually to prevent choking hazards.
