Teething rings

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has announced recalls of the following products. Consumers should stop using recalled products unless otherwise instructed. For a complete list of recalled products, visit www.cpsc.gov.

Units: About 1,000

Manufacturer: Empire Silver Co., of Brooklyn, N.Y.

Hazard: The silver ball that holds the ring in place can separate and release the beads inside. This poses a choking and aspiration hazard to infants.

Sold at: Independent jewelry, gift, specialty and department stores nationwide during November 2007 for $50 to $120.

Remedy: Return the teething rings to the store where purchased for a refund or replacement.
