When do babies get their first tooth?
Most babies get their first tooth between 6 and 10 months, usually one of the bottom front teeth. Some start as early as 4 months, others after their first birthday. Both can be normal. By about age 3, most children have all 20 baby teeth.

How we calculate this
Tooth ages come from the American Dental Association's eruption chart. These are typical ranges. Many healthy babies are a few months earlier or later. The order can change too.
Questions moms ask
What are the signs of teething?
Drooling, chewing on things, sore or swollen gums, and being fussy are common signs. Teething does not usually cause a high fever. If your baby has a fever, call their doctor.
How can I help a teething baby?
Try gently rubbing their gums with a clean finger, or give them a cold (not frozen) teething ring. Ask your doctor before using any teething gels or medicine.
When should my baby first see a dentist?
Many dentists recommend a first visit when the first tooth comes in, or by the first birthday.
My baby is 12 months and has no teeth. Is that OK?
It can be normal. Some babies get their first tooth late. If there are no teeth by about 18 months, talk to your child's doctor or dentist.
