In the life of every baby and every mother, there comes an exciting moment when the first teeth erupt. And, alas, along with the joy of a new independent stage in the life of a child, new problems interfere in the lives of children and parents. The child's first tooth is accompanied by a very painful condition. Is it possible to alleviate these unpleasant manifestations of growing up? Of course you can. How? Let's figure it out together.
When do the first teeth appear?
Usually a baby's first baby tooth is at 6 months. Although some children have their first teeth appearing as early as 4 months of age, others have to wait as long as 7 months for their first incisors. By the way, both such an early and such a late appearance is considered the norm. At 6-8 months, the central lower incisors appear.
- At 8-12 months, the central upper incisors grow;
- 10-13 months – second upper and lower incisors;
- 1-1.5 years – primary molars;
- 1.5-2 years – fangs;
- 2-2.5 years – second primary molars.
Thus, by the age of two, the baby already has 18 teeth in its mouth. But it is the first incisors that cause the baby the most inconvenience.
And we have our first tooth. + funny poems about the first tooth)))))
I was already expecting him to visit us, of course, I felt my gums every day, but today I felt them! Before this, for two days we didn’t sleep day or night and were capricious, all the time only in our arms, but here you go))) This is what I found on the net about the first tooth, I decided to share)
How tactless this adult family is! They think - will they “trick” me pedagogically? After all, the child is five months old, an adult, an intelligent person, and they babble “aha”, as if there were no teeth. I watch them carefully every time (Let them chatter, they’re family), I just squint my eyes slightly. I have many, many new words in my mind, Only “but” is an excuse - I don’t have teeth. No, I’m lying, but I’m still hiding it: My friend is the first to climb. I then drool to wash the tooth. But my relatives don’t understand, they shove all the toys at me. I'll gnaw on it, let the mother know how to get a child out! What? Want to make sure? Well, put your finger in your mouth! Just don't get angry: That's where my little tooth lives!
Zubik, where are you, get out? Don’t torment our baby. Our baby sheds tears, sticks whatever gets into her mouth. The tooth is cutting, it hurts, Our baby: “A-A-A” - screams. Suddenly he calmed down and lay there, Zubik got out! The tooth is sticking out!
I regularly pull everything that falls into my hands into my mouth: a rattle, a doll, a finger, a corner of a blanket. It’s a pity the ball won’t fit in my mouth, I could have chewed the ball! Whatever we grab, we chew. We are waiting for your first tooth to visit!
Today I ate a little porridge with a spoon in the morning. Suddenly there was something on the spoon... a knock! - I heard a strange sound. And I was even surprised: Who appeared in the mouth there? White, small, straight. This is my first tooth!
The smile never leaves your lips – Egorka’s first tooth has grown! And now Yegorka is happy - You can eat marmalade! Because it's not easy to drink milk every day.
Now I can eat even an oak tree - The first tooth has appeared! I have no strength to resist, I really want to bite. And I chew on everything: A doll, a ball and a bed, Even a toe, If I come across it anywhere. They say I'm funny with him. They are waiting for the second one to appear. I will eat for five, When there are many of them.
Take a sip of porridge and a sip of mixtures, Hold the bottle tightly, son, Press the pacifier harder with your gums, Gain strength and grow up! The pacifier is bitten, a tooth has appeared, Everyone is happy, but the grandfather was surprised: It’s amazing how fast you are growing, grandson, - A teaspoon for your tooth! We will be strong friends with you, go hunting and fish. The grandson smiled, “aha” he said, and showed his first tooth to Grandfather.
Everyone is fussing around so much, forcing me to eat porridge. Well, I want to play, I’ve been here for half a year already. I'll hit the button, And wave it like a conductor, And the toy will play its melody again. I sing along with her out of tune, Maybe somehow they will understand, After all, my first tooth appeared today!

How to understand that teeth have started to cut?
The following symptoms will indicate that a child is getting his first baby tooth:
- severe crying, frequent whims of the baby;
- increased salivation;
- slight increase in temperature;
- frequent excitability;
- refusal of food;
- upset stomach (diarrhea).
Of course, the above symptoms individually can indicate not only that the child is getting his first teeth. For example, whims and frequent excitability in a baby can be caused by stress due to moving to a new apartment, fever by a cold, and diarrhea by an allergy to a particular product. Usually, the eruption of the first teeth in children provokes several, or even all, of these signs at once.

When should you worry?
The listed signs of the appearance of the first baby tooth should not bother mom, dad and grandmother too much. The following symptoms may be a reason to contact your pediatrician:
- Early appearance of the first teeth. In rare cases, newborns develop teeth immediately after birth. This may indicate endocrine pathology and requires examination by an endocrinologist.
- A significant delay in teething may also indicate various metabolic disorders in children and requires medical intervention.
- Incorrect appearance order . If, instead of the baby’s first incisors, molars or fangs begin to peck, such disharmony may indicate anomalies in the baby’s development or be a consequence of illnesses that the woman suffered during pregnancy.
- Temperature above 39 degrees. When the first teeth erupt in children, the temperature rises slightly. If your baby becomes hot and the high temperature lasts for several hours, call a doctor immediately.
How to help your baby?
To alleviate the symptoms accompanying teething in a child, parents can use one of the following methods:
- Let your baby chew on a crust of bread . Such manipulations will provide gum massage. However, you need to carefully monitor your child so that he does not choke on the spicy crumbs.
- Wipe off saliva from your baby's skin every half hour . Excessive salivation irritates the skin and can lead to rashes, dry skin and allergic reactions.
- Massage your baby's gums . If your baby is suffering from pain and inflammation of the gums, try gently massaging the gums with a clean finger. But, before you start the massage, remember not to lubricate fragile baby gums with alcohol or apply tablets to the tissues.
First steps in case of loss
This article talks about typical ways to solve your issues, but each case is unique! If you want to find out from me how to solve your particular problem, ask your question. It's fast and free

A baby whose milk elements begin to change does not need painkillers. Adults think that the procedure of changing units is extremely unpleasant for the child, but before the tooth begins to loosen, the roots in it dissolve.
The loss causes discomfort, but the teeth do not hurt. A wound remains in place of the organ, which bleeds a little. Children easily tolerate a change in bite.
Losing teeth can be a shock to little ones, so parents should explain to them that this is normal, and new healthy teeth will soon grow and remain forever. At the age of 7-14 years, the oral cavity needs careful hygiene, and after removal, the following rules must be followed:
- immediately rinse your mouth with soda;
- prohibit the child from touching the wound to avoid infection;
- When the meal is over, rinse your mouth with warm water.
To help with loosening, you can give your child hard fruits and vegetables: apples, pears, carrots. Dried fruits in small quantities are also suitable.
