Every child is the best gift sent by God to his parents. It is said that a child is his mother's angel baby. The physical changes of a child are the most concerned issues for parents. For example, the problem of a child's teething is the most worrying thing for parents. During the teething process, the child may experience various symptoms. So, at what months is it normal for infants and young children to start teething? The following are some relevant details. How many months is it normal for infants and young children to have teeth? 1. Although babies do not have teeth in their mouths when they are born, they already have tooth germs in their cheekbones. After a certain period of time, teeth will grow out from the surface of the gums. The process of teeth growing out of the jawbone is medically called tooth eruption, or commonly known as tooth growth. 2. In most cases, children's teeth erupt naturally and there is no feeling. Some children also experience local redness, itching, drooling, biting hard objects or fingers, biting nipples during breastfeeding, etc. These phenomena usually disappear naturally after teeth eruption. 3. Healthy babies usually start to grow teeth six or seven months after birth. However, some children may have late tooth eruption, even 3-4 months later, which is not considered abnormal. Some children may have their first tooth erupt at around 1 year old, which is still considered within the physiological range. 4. Some parents are very anxious when they see that their children have not grown teeth at eight or nine months old, thinking that their children may be calcium deficient and the teeth cannot grow. Therefore, some parents give their children cod liver oil and calcium powder, and increase the dosage. This practice is inappropriate and often harms the health of children. It is not possible to determine whether a child is calcium deficient simply based on the time at which his teeth erupt. Even if late tooth eruption is caused by calcium deficiency, calcium supplementation should not be done blindly. It should be done under the guidance of a doctor. If parents give their babies large amounts of cod liver oil, vitamin D, or calcium injections without authorization, it can easily cause poisoning and cause pain to the children. 5. Although some children's teeth start to erupt early and some start late, and although there is always a certain order for tooth eruption, not all children's teeth erupt in this order. Sometimes the order of eruption will change slightly, which is also within the normal range. Whether it is upper teeth or lower teeth, the time and order of eruption will change. After understanding the above content, I believe parents have a certain understanding! Children in their infancy need to be well taken care of. Infants and young children in this period often have fevers and colds, so parents should pay more attention to this aspect in their daily lives.
