when teeth come through

• The time when teeth appear varies from child to child.
• Occasionally babies are born with a tooth but these early teeth are usually lost soon after birth.
• Usually the first tooth appears between 6-10 months, but a few babies have no teeth until 12 months or later.
• The lower two front teeth usually come through before the upper ones.
• The teeth usually come through in pairs - one on the right, one on the left side.
• By about 2½-3 years all 20 baby teeth have come through.
• The first permanent teeth (molars in both jaws and the central (incisor) teeth in the lower jaw) begin to come through when a child is about six.
• By 12-13 years, most children have 28 permanent teeth. The last four molars (‘wisdom teeth’) usually come through between 17 and 21 years

Do not use lemon juice on your baby's gums. Lemon juice has a lot of acid and can harm new teeth by dissolving the tooth enamel.
