Yes: The average is one new tooth a month starting at four months. There is much variability.Some have teeth at birth and some wait until 15 months for their first. Most have 20 by age 3 yr.

Probably: Males eruption sequence is slower than females by around 6 months or more so 6 teeth could be in the range or even 8 teeth or even a few more.If there are no medical problems than don't worry.

Normal: And isn't it just a wonder how your child develops. Enjoy every delightful minute. And make his 1st appointment with a pediatric dental specialist (for all the same reasons he sees a pediatric medical specialist) to coincide with his 1st b'day. Don't put it off.

Yes: He is develo ping normally. Remember to brush his teeth at least twice a day. This is an important time to start good habits and prevent decay. Cherish this time, they. Grow too fast.
