My baby's side teeth are coming in before the front teeth. is that healthy and normal?

Yes: The order of tooth eruption can vary greatly from baby to baby. Although most babies cut the front top or bottom teeth first, it is perfectly normal to have a different tooth be the first to erupt. The order in which the teeth erupt is not indicative of any illness or problem, as long as they all eventually appear.

Yes: It is not uncommon. Sometimes the side teeth come in first. No treatment or dental visit is required.

Possibly: Normally, the anterior teeth erupt before posterior teeth. You may want to consult a pedodontist (children dentist) to make sure there is not a problem

Get it checked out!: It is difficult to determine what is normal in this situation without knowing your family history and without doing a clinical exam. Many dental experts believe a child should have their first dental visit at age 1 and it sounds like your situation would benefit from an early exam! your child's eruption pattern maybe different or possibly some teeth are congenitally missing.Let a dentist help you!
