How old was your child with Down syndrome when they got their first tooth?

 Joey was 11 months.

Kiki is 10 months old now and still hasn't cut a tooth. I've begun to worry a little bit myself so I'm glad you started this thread.

Aiden still doesn't have one. And he's nearly 18 months.

Georgia is 14 months and no teeth yet. But I THINK I just felt a little nub last night! Not sure though.

My son did not get his first tooth until he was 2! I was a dental assistant, so this caused me some concern, but I learned that delayed eruption was quite normal for a kid with Ds. They eventually all came in!

julia cut her first tooth about a week before her 1st b-day. it was one of the front bottom ones. within couple weeks she started cutting the other front bottom one and 2 molars! anyway, she is 19 months now, and has 4 teeth - and her front 2 on the top are sooooo close!!

Brant was 10 months old but I have heard that it's very common for children with Ds to have their teeth come in late and out of the "typical" order. I wouldn't worry :)

Kiki finally cut her first tooth. It poked through last Friday. It's on the bottom, and there's a bump right next to it, so I think there's another one in the near future. She was 11 months and 3 days on Friday.

Ayden got his first tooteh last week, at 9 months and one day old. It's on the lower left in the front. It looks like it may come in a little crooked :)
