This is usually when a Maltese will start to cut their adult teeth. There really isn't much you can do other than to keep the facial hair of your Maltese as dry as possible during this time.

Will they stain?

Paintballs generally will not stain clothing but a little common sense is required. Wash any painted clothing soon after being hit, and do not trust paint on delicate fabrics. Yes, it does. Many say it is the equivalent of a pinch or a sting. You can expect that, if you are hit, a bruise may develop. The force of the impact is, of course, dependent on the distance from the opposing player, the velocity of the player’s gun and any protective clothing you are wearing.

Colgateprofessional.com.au - Your Online Oral Care Resource ...
Chlorhexidine gel is safe for use with patients of any age as it does not contain ethanol. It is often preferred by patients over rinse because of its weaker taste and flavour.

Will sunless tanners stain my clothes?

Frequently Asked Questions - Sunless.com
Light colored nylon fabrics are definitely in danger, and I have the bathmat to prove it. Avoid wearing light colored nylon fabrics after applying sunless tanners. Wool is also supposed to be at risk, but I haven't confirmed this. Other light colored fabrics may stain slightly but the stains should wash out. The arrival of Coppertone Endless Summer and Bain de Soleil Radiance Eternelle have changed the situation, however.
