Dont Worry: Some children get baby teeth in later than others. This may be the case when it is time for her permanent teeth also. This will not cause any problems. If it gets pat 2 years you may want to have a dentist take an xray.

Dentist Visit: People are very seldom "text book". That said, i would definitely have an examination with either a pediatric dentist, or a general dentist. The rule is: have your first dental visit by the age of 1." congratulations on your daughter!

Not unusual: Some kids get teeth faster, some slower, than others. 1st dental check-up age 1 (not 2-3) with a pediatric dental specialist who has special training in facial and dental growth and development. Kids who see pedodontist @ age 1 have 40% less dental expenses by age 5 than kids who see gp starting at 2-3. Go now, you'll be very glad that you did.
