Hi, I’m a first time mom and was wondering when I should expect my daughter’s teeth to start coming in.

Cammie Anne,
Below is a chart to show you the location of the teeth and a list to give you some general guidelines. Bear in mine that each child is different, so don’t panic if your child doesn’t follow the schedule exactly. It will be important that you find a good dentist. Look for someone who does pediatric dentistry.
6 to 10 months: Lower Central Incisors
8 to 12 months: Upper Central incisors
10 to 16 months: Lower Lateral Incisors
9 to 13 months: Upper Lateral Incisors
17 to 23 months: Lower Canine
16 to 22 months: Upper Canine
14 to 18 months: Lower First Molar
13 to 19 months: Upper First Molar
23 to 31 months: Lower Second Molar
25 to 33 months: Upper Second Molar
