Baby's physical development varies at different stages of life, and due to individual differences, the growth of the body is also different. Teeth are the organs for chewing food and are also very important for babies. After birth, the baby's teeth will gradually grow full. So, how many baby teeth should there be at 1 year and 6 months old?
At the age of 1 year and 6 months, there should be around 20 baby teeth. By the time the baby is 6 months old, the first baby tooth usually appears, some early and some late, with a difference of about half a year. This is within the normal range, as long as it appears before the age of 1.
In order for their babies to grow healthy teeth, parents should pay attention to supplementing calcium or encouraging them to eat more high-quality and high protein foods. They should also take good care of their teeth to avoid gum problems and ensure sufficient sleep. By around two and a half years old, the baby's baby teeth have mostly come out.
During the period of baby's teething, drooling may occur, which is actually caused by stimulation. Parents should clean and take care of the area around the baby's mouth to avoid stimulating delicate skin. In addition, the baby may also have a bad temper, coupled with the pain of teething, and the baby may lose interest in breastfeeding. Parents should give full understanding and care, and this situation can also improve after the baby's teeth have grown.
