My son is 18 months old and still only one teeth has come out, that also at 12 the month. What to do? Should I go for pediatric dentist?

Hello. There is no need to worry as the teething range is different in different children. You can safely wait for a few more months if you feel that the gums of your child are hard. But if you feel that the gums are soft or spongy then an X-ray needs to be done and for that you will need to contact a dentist, preferably a pediatric dentist.
