What are the stages of baby teeth development?

Les premières dents chez le bébé percent généralement vers l’âge de 6 mois. Certaines des dents peuvent apparaître plus tôt comme plus tard dans le développement de l’enfant. Dans la majorité des cas, l’enfant percera ses 20 dents primaires jusqu’à environ 3 ans.
