my little girl is one year old and only has 4 teeth. is the average?

Answer 1

absolutely. Every child is different. Some babies are born with teeth or get them as early as 3 month and others are almost one years old before they even get one. I wouldn't worry!

Answer 2

Yes she is doing just fine. Here are the average time spans for teeth to come in.
Lower central incisor 6-10 months
Upper central incisor 8-12 months
Upper lateral incisors 9-13 months
Lower lateral incisors 10-16 months
Upper first molars 13-19 months
Lower first molars 14-18 months
Upper canine 16-22 months
Lower canine 17-23 months
Upper 2nd molar 25-33 months
Lower 2nd molar 23-31 months

Some kids don't get their first teeth until 14-16 months so it shouldn't be long until she gets those Upper Lateral incisors, then the lower lateral incisors. Good luck! And make sure they don't go to bed with milk or juice or they can be susceptible to baby bottle caries. Always give them water before bed or wipe their teeth so that the bacteria doesn't sit on them all night creating cavities. And after their first birthday it is recommended to have them see a dentist just to make sure everything is coming in okay. You can even take them with you to the dentist to get them accustomed to the dentist office--that way they are less apprehensive when they go by themselves later on.

Answer 3

Each child is different and they all get teeth at different times. My daughter is 13 months and has 12 teeth. She had 4 teeth at 4 months.

Answer 4

My son is 10 months and has 4.

My mum said I was 16 months before I had ANY teeth! All babies are different and I think your advised not to worry unless they get to 18 months with none so your girl is doing just fine!

And hey - who wants to be average!

Answer 5

i was wondering the same thing my daughter is 11 months old with just the two teeth at the bottom, out of my 6 kids she's the only one that took this long to get her teeth.

Answer 6

First, be very extra beneficial than chuffed that they have been toddler tooth so no injury has been carried out! they'll possibly improve back interior the 300 and sixty 5 days. There somewhat is not any way of telling nevertheless. My son lost a front tooth whilst he became 2. It grew back whilst he became 5. My nephew lost his 2 front tooth clearly (they have been given unfastened and fell out, no twist of destiny) whilst he became 5 and the grownup tooth did no longer start up coming in until he became virtually 8. So, i assume it relies upon on the new child. i think of in the experience that your son have been given his tooth early, the hot ones will improve in early? At age 4 he could already be seeing a dentist, so they're going to reassure you.

Answer 7

There isn't really an average for teetah at a particular stage. It is quite common for babies at 1 year to have no teeth, so don't worry, she' s doing fine!!!

Answer 8

I'm sure you've heard this before, but all kids are different. My daughter didn't get her first two in until she was at least 14 months! At 2 yrs. now, she only has 11 so far. From what I've heard, pretty much anything goes!

Answer 9

it all depend on the child. my daughter started bringing out teeth at 3 months. others letter. your girl will bring out teeth dont worry ok

Answer 10

My neice is 10 months and only has one! They will come when they are ready dont worry. My nephew has loads, also 10 months old but they are developing different ways at their own pace, one crawls one stands alone but wont crawl. Give it time.
