Yes drooling and biting is one of the sign of teething.
Teeth can errupt at any time from birth
But most of the baby have their 1st teeth between 5-15 of age
Teeth eruptions is a natural process
No need to do anything for that
Don't give any medication for that unless fever and exessive crying.
Just do gum massage with ur little finger thrice a day
Give teether if possible, Clean teether every time before use.
It will help
