    Don’t worry if your baby’s teething is delayed; it varies from one child to another. As long as your baby’s hair, skin, and bone growth are normal, there is nothing to worry. Delayed teething doesn’t indicate any problem in the overall development of your baby. Teething could be delayed due to: hereditary reasons; poor nutrition; hypothyroidism and premature birth. However, if you think that there is no family history and your child is getting adequate nutrition, and yet your baby hasn’t started teething, then you must consult your doctor. But first, look out for the signs as they would tell you when the tooth might appear.
