1st Baby tooth started in upper jaw

2023-01-20 17:00:26
Hello Doctor, My baby is 11 months old. He's started teething on this month January 13th on upper jaw (Please find the attached pic). But some people are saying that- firstly teeth should start in lower jaw, but should not come in upper jaw. Is it true doctor? Please suggest. Thank you.

Nothing to be worried about, it may occur. Just ensure his all 20 teeth come out, all being temporary.
