Accepted Answer

Hello ma’am, do not worry about this. You can wait till the age of 18 months. If there is no teeth by that time then you will have to visit a dentist.

Answer

al milestones are normal

Answer

The timeline for teething can vary among infants. It's not uncommon for some babies to have no teeth by 8 months, and there's usually a wide range of normal development in this regard.

Factors affecting teething include genetics and individual variations in growth. Some babies may start teething earlier or later than others. It's generally considered within the range of normal for a baby to get their first tooth between 6 and 12 months.

If your baby is not showing any signs of discomfort, is otherwise healthy, and is meeting other developmental milestones, there's usually no cause for concern. However, if you have specific worries or if your baby is significantly delayed in multiple developmental areas, it's a good idea to discuss this with your pediatrician. They can provide guidance and, if necessary, recommend further evaluation.
