Hi, Mostly babies get their first tooth between 6 to 10 months. It all depends on the development of the baby. But yes, once the baby gets teeth, one should making the baby see a dentist to follow good dental care, as when the dental health is ignored and baby gets cavity then it becomes quite problematic. And as far as when the baby should get his/her teeth is not in anyone's hand. If a baby gets tooth at 6 months, cherish it, and if you find anything unusual happening, see the dentist. :)
