Jessica my DS is 9 months as well and has no teeth, this is fine. They can come anytime, even up to a year. The average age for the first two lower teeth is 6-10 months I believe, they will come soon enough.

Yes, this is normal! Some babies don't get teeth until they're over 12 months. Supposedly, the later they come in, the stronger they are!

Here's some good info from BabyCenter:

The vast majority of babies sprout their first teeth when they're between 4 and 7 months of age. An early developer may get his first white cap as early as 3 months, while a late bloomer may have to wait until he's a year old or more. (In rare cases, a baby's first tooth is already visible at birth.) Whenever the first tooth makes its appearance, celebrate the milestone by taking pictures and noting the date in your child's baby book.

How to care for your baby's teeth and gums

Learn the right way to care for your baby's gums and emerging teeth, when fluoride is okay, whether you need to floss, when and how to brush, and more.

Teeth actually start developing while your baby's in the womb, when tooth buds form in the gums. Teeth break through one at a time over a period of months, and often ? but not always ? in this order: First the bottom two middle teeth, then the top two middle ones, then the ones along the sides and back. They may not all come in straight, but don't worry ? they usually straighten out over time.

The last teeth to appear (the second molars, found in the very back of the mouth on the top and bottom) have usually begun coming into place by your baby's second birthday. By age 3, your child should have a full set of 20 baby teeth, which shouldn't fall out until his permanent teeth are ready to start coming in, around age 6.
