tilting the cot does it really help with teething??

Hi there, i have a 6mth girl who we think might be breaking a tooth-but who really knows-& i was told that if you tilt the top of cot it helps with the pain of the teething???So we have put yellow pages under her mattress-as we thought we'd try anything-is there any1 else out there that has done or doing this or has heard of it???

I have heard of it and done it for reflux but havent heard of it for teething sorry. Have you tried a gel on her teeth.
