227.0. "Missing tooth?" by GENRAL::REAVES () Tue Aug 07 1990 15:21
Hi folks,
My 15 month son only has three teeth on bottom, all of them
are completely grown in. He cut the middle two around 7 months
of age, and the third (on the right bottom) about 3 months
ago. But, the fourth is nowhere to be seen!! Should I be
concerned, or wait a few more months and then be concerned?
It's just odd...with my first son, all the teeth came in pairs...
Thanks for your advice!
Cathy

| It seems to me that Eric went through almost six months between teeth
at a similar age. I'd give it time. They certainly don't always come
through in pairs, either.

| 227.2 | only 3 is not uncommon | 32FAR::JBOUCHER | | Tue Aug 07 1990 16:54 | 9 |
| My son who is now 8, has only 3 instead of 4 teeth at the bottom. The
dentist at his first visit said that this was not uncommon and that an
xray showed that he only has 3 permanent teeth also to replace them.
He told me not to worry.
Funny thing was that I wasnt into counting teeth and I didnt know until
he counted at the first visit. Oh well.
I wouldnt worry about it.........Jennie
