Teething in babies typically starts between 4 and 7 months of age. However, some babies may begin as early as 3 months, while others might not start until after their first birthday. The first teeth to appear are usually the two bottom front teeth (lower central incisors), followed by the top front teeth (upper central incisors). The timing varies for each child and development pace, so a range from about 3 months to 12 months is considered normal. In summary:
- Most babies start teething around 4 to 7 months.
- Some start as early as 3 months.
- Some may start after 12 months.
- First teeth usually are the bottom two front teeth.
