Hello,
Eruption of milk teeth in children go on till 3-3.5 years of age. Generally laterals do erupt by age 2.
I would like to know if there was any problem during birth, was the baby born premature or late? And when did the first tooth erupt?
Also, an xray really helps to know what exactly is the situation inside. An photo taken with your phone will also help initially till the xray is done
The gap between lateral and canine is generally a healthy sign as permanent teeth are bigger than milk teeth but with a missing lateral as you say, an Xray would give more clarity
Next Steps
Do not worry,
Since your child is 2 years only, please visit us, we can gently take only 1 small Xray if needed in a way the child is comfortable and guide you for what to look out for and what are the next steps to be taken
It shouldn’t be anything major, take care
