Hi! I am a Pediatric dentist (Dentist for kids). You need not worry. Some children teeth later than others. The eruption of teeth is a slow process.
Next Steps
You could go for expert opinion from a Pediatric dentist where examination can be done and cause of late teething could be determined.
Health Tips
Do make sure your child has good nutrition and hydration while teething.
