Baby had the 2 bottom teeth at 8 months.... now she's 11 months old and still only these 2 are out... heard that they might have to open the gums?

Wait: That would be very dramatic! enjoy your baby and don't be too concerned about that. There is some variability in tooth eruption. I would have your child see a pediatric dentist at 12 to 18 months for a well baby check up and discuss this with the dentist before proceeding with any surgery.

Pediatric Dentist: Every child develops differently. You may want to schedule her for her first visit with a pediatric dentist.
