Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. for tooth development and eruption the first important thing is that the child should not have deficiency of calcium and vitamin d.
first tooth eruption can occur anytime between 6 months to 18 months of age.
deficiency is there or not will be told by the doctor.
there is no need to worry because many times the first tooth eruption may occur as late as 16 to 18 months of age also.
so if your personal doctor is not worried then no need to worry from your side
calcium is available in good amount in milk and milk products. it is also available in good amount in pulses and cereals and fruits. also richley present in green leafy vegetables ragi,soyabean,chickpea,nuts, dryfruits,seeds,beans,lentils
non vegetarian food as wezll as eggs fish contain good amount of calcium.
if the above diet is given properly no need to give calcium supplements to the child
