Incident Overview

On May 2, 2026, a child was being fed while seated in a Bumbo Baby Infant Toddler Soft Foam Multi Seat with Remo at home. The child's grandmother was supervising and momentarily looked away to retrieve the child's water bottle. During that brief interval, the child bit the tip of the seat's strap. The strap became lodged between the child's teeth, causing trauma to the tooth and its socket. The child's baby tooth was broken and displaced as a result.

According to the incident report filed with the CPSC, the child was evaluated by medical professionals who determined that extraction of the tooth was necessary. The reporter noted that the product was being used as intended at the time of the incident. The hazard is classified as a choking hazard due to the risk of airway obstruction from a detached strap piece, though the actual injury involved dental trauma. The report is publicly available on SaferProducts.gov under Report ID 6034276.

Safety Concerns

Immediate Dangers: The strap's design allows it to be bitten and caught between a child's teeth. This can cause immediate dental trauma, including tooth fracture, displacement, or avulsion. If a piece of the strap were to break off, it could pose a choking hazard by obstructing the airway.

Long-Term Risks: Dental injuries in young children can lead to complications such as misalignment of permanent teeth, speech development issues, and ongoing dental treatment needs. The loss of a baby tooth before natural exfoliation may also affect the child's bite and jaw development.

Who Might Be Affected: Infants and toddlers who use the Bumbo seat are at risk, particularly those with emerging teeth who may chew on accessible parts. Caregivers may not anticipate that the strap could become lodged in a child's mouth, increasing the likelihood of injury during routine feeding.

Warning Signs: The strap's soft foam material may appear harmless, but its shape and position near the child's mouth create a hazard. Parents should be alert to any part of the seat that a child can easily reach with their mouth, especially during feeding when the child is restrained.
