Doctor's answer:
It's not necessarily a problem if a baby hasn't started teething yet. Typically, teething begins between 4 to 10 months of age. For most babies who are teething, the age can be roughly estimated by subtracting 4 to 6 months from their current age. If a baby hasn't started teething by the age of one, that would be considered an abnormal situation.It's possible that the baby might be deficient in calcium, so it's best to have their trace elements checked carefully. Of course, you can also supplement with calcium, fish oil, and get more sun exposure. However, make sure the daily sun exposure doesn't exceed 2 hours. Note that it must be natural sunlight that passes through glass-free windows to be effective. This is the best way to get the desired results without any side effects.
