POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy3 months agoA. It’s quite common for some babies to get their first teeth a little later than others. Most babies typically get their first tooth around 6 months, but it can vary significantly. For some babies, the first tooth may appear as late as 12 to 18 months. If your baby is 1 year old and still hasn't developed any teeth, it’s usually not a cause for concern as long as your baby is otherwise healthy and meeting other developmental milestones.
Teething can be influenced by genetic factors, so it's possible that your baby’s teeth are just taking a little longer to come through. However, if you're concerned or if there are other signs such as discomfort, poor feeding, or developmental delays, it’s always a good idea to consult your pediatrician. Your doctor can assess your baby's overall health and development and provide reassurance or check for any potential issues.
In the meantime, you can continue to provide comfort for your baby as teething may be uncomfortable when it does start.
