Izzy's First Tooth



When a baby begins teething, there is no set pattern on when it will begin, how long it will take and how painful it will be. Her bottom teeth are coming in and it looks like she is right on schedule according to the experts.

6 to 7 months
Incisors
Two central bottom & Two central top teeth.

7 to 9 months
Two more incisors
Top & bottom; making four top & four bottom teeth in all.

10 to 14 months
First molars
Double teeth for chewing

15 to 18 months
Canines
The pointed teeth or “fangs”

2 to 3 years
Second molars
The second set of double teeth at the back
