It's ok not to have teeth till one year of age . Wait for 6 months more . If still there is no progress may be we need to perform minor surgical procedures to guide tooth eruption .

It's not something to be worried about as of now. But to be on a safer side you can get a small iopa X-ray done. To rule out any congenital problem. Regards Dr. Amit chhillar
