My baby just turned one and her back bottom molars are comming in already.?


I thought it was around age 2 when the first molars came in, or am I wrong? She has her 4 top teeth, her 2 bottom teeth and now the big molars just popped up..i was surprised to see them today. Is that the normal pattern for them to come in? Thanks.

Answers:
Her primary molars will come in at an average of 12 months (sounds like she's right on track). These are the molars in the back but closest to the front of the mouth. 2 on the top and two on the bottom.

The secondary molars (or 2 year molars) typically come in at age 2 and are the molars furthest to the back. These additional 4 molars make for a total of 8 molars at around age 2.
maybe she just get them early..there isnt anything wrong with her.
