Patient's question:
Why isn't the baby growing teeth? I don't know what's going on, and no other special problems have been found. Treatment history and effectiveness: No hospital examination has been conducted. What kind of help do you want: I want to know if this situation is normal.Doctor's answer:
A 12-month-old baby not teething is due to calcium deficiency. Normal children can get their first teeth between 4 and 6 months, while calcium-deficient children may not get their teeth until they are 1 or even 2 years old, or their teeth may come in in the wrong order, with rough enamel. Older children with calcium deficiency are more prone to tooth decay, tooth fractures, or spontaneous shedding.Calcium intake is particularly important when a child is teething, as teeth are almost impossible to repair afterward. Calcium deficiency at this stage can lead to loose teeth, enamel erosion, and tooth decay, all of which will affect the child's health in the first half of their life. When supplementing calcium for your baby, it's essential to take it with vitamin D. The best choice is calcium carbonate with vitamin D.
