Green poop is indicative of acidic stools, and can also mean infection. Some babies on formula feed can have this kind of poop. Please provide more info on what food/milk your baby is eating, or if there has been a recent change in eating habits.

1.gum paints are usually formulations of tannic acid that reduce gum bleeding from weak, spongy gums. 2.salt water rinse is indeed very beneficial for improving gum health
3. Occasional teeth sensitivity may occur due to gum recession, cervical notching of teeth due to faulty brushing, surface cracks on teeth, initial caries etc. See your dentist for the same.
