Baby s first tooth.

Your baby s first tooth will almost certainly be one of the bottom front pair but will only probably be cut shortly. The timing of when your baby s first tooth comes in can vary quite a bit. Your baby s bottom front two teeth will likely come in first followed by the four upper teeth. Babies cut their teeth in a fairly predictable order but at widely varying ages.

Around 3 months of age babies will begin exploring the world with their mouth and have increased saliva and start to put their hands in their mouth. A baby s first tooth usually comes in somewhere between 4 and 8 months just after you ve finally gotten her to sleep through the night. Most babies get their first tooth when they re between 6 and 10 months old. If your baby develops teeth early she may get her first tooth as soon as 3 months.

Very rarely a baby s first tooth is already visible at birth in other cases you may have to wait until she s a year or older. There is a wide range of variability of when a first tooth may appear some babies may not have any teeth by their first birthday.
