Hello Doctor, My Son Is 18 Months Old Now, He
Question: Hello doctor,
My son is 18 months old now, he has just developed 4 teeth in the front upper side and 4 teeth in the front bottom side. He has still not developed canine and molar teeth. Is this something which we have to worry about and get it checked?
Thanks,
