Patient's question:
At one year old, the child has only grown two teeth. This situation has been ongoing for some time, and as parents, we are very concerned. We hope the doctor can provide some advice.Doctor's answer:
Hello, teething can be early or late in babies. Since you have been supplementing calcium, it's definitely not due to calcium deficiency causing late teething. If a baby's teething is slow, it could be due to genetic factors. Sometimes gender also plays a certain role, as girls generally tend to teethe earlier.After birth, if a baby is premature, it's likely that slow overall development could lead to delayed teething. Abnormal secretion of the pituitary gland or incomplete development of the ectoderm can also affect a child's teething speed. For specific reasons, you can take your baby to the hospital to see what's going on.
