Many babies will have their first tooth when they reach four or five months old, and the growth of their teeth means that they will soon be able to chew food on their own. At this time, parents can gradually add some complementary foods according to their baby's eating habits. How many teeth will a baby have at 15 months old?
Under normal circumstances, a baby will grow around 10 teeth at 15 months old, but the timing and speed of tooth growth vary for each baby. Therefore, as long as a baby sprouts teeth within 10 months, it is considered normal. If the speed of tooth growth is slow, it is recommended to supplement with foods containing calcium and take the baby out for walks. Exposure to sunlight can also promote calcium absorption.
Starting from the baby's first tooth, parents should pay attention to the health of their baby's teeth. They should try to rinse their baby's mouth with water every time they finish milk or complementary foods, and also wrap gauze around their fingers to help clean up food residue between their teeth. After the baby develops the skill of brushing their teeth, they can gradually develop the habit of brushing their teeth frequently.
A good set of teeth is very important for babies because they can consume more nutritious food in a timely manner. If there is always the presence of dental caries, babies will feel significant pain and their health will also be greatly affected.
