Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Teeth----Order of Appearance

DS is 13 1/2 months and has been teething for about 2 months now on his molars.  But this morning his top right canine came through, which I thought was a 16-20 month set.  He has all 8 incisors and his gums are white and hard where his molars are.  I am waiting on his dentist to call back, but I wanted to see what you ladies thought.  Should we be concerned???

Also, he got his central incisors at 5 months. Not sure if that makes a difference.

TIA!!

Re: Teeth----Order of Appearance

  • I don't think I'd be concerned.  My DD got her teeth early, just got all 4 molars 2 months ago and is now working on all 4 canines.  We haven't slept in days in my house, lol.  But I think your LO is fine.  I wouldn't be worried.

  • Ayden got all 4 canines and all 4 first molars at the same time, which was approximately 10 months.  The bottom 2 canines actually broke through the skin first.  When I saw them, I looked at the rest of his teeth and realized the other 6 were also coming in.  All 8 were completely in by 12 months.

  • What are you concerned about?

  • dd got all her teeth in the "wrong" order, nothing to worry about.
  • I don't think there is a "right" order. But DS has now 3 molars and no canines and still needs the other 2 bottom teeth in front.

  • After his 8 initial front teeth (4 top, 4 bottom) DS got his top two canine teeth, then 3 molars, now he's working on the bottom two canines, and I think the 4th molar may be in the works as well.
