The diagnosis of niacin deficiency is based on the diet history and symptoms. Measuring a by-product of niacin in urine can help establish the diagnosis, but this test is not always available. The diagnosis is confirmed if niacin relieves symptoms.
The survey of primary caregivers revealed that, for those children who had seen a dentist â and 34% had not â the average age at the initial visit was 2.6 years. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommends that a child go to the dentist by age 1 or within six months after the first tooth erupts. Primary teeth typically begin growing in around 6 months of age.
Most babies sprout their first tooth when they're between 4 and 7 months old. An early developer may get his first tooth as early as 3 months, while it may take a late bloomer until he's a year old or more. (In very rare cases, a baby's first tooth is already visible at birth.) Whenever your baby's first tooth makes its appearance, celebrate the milestone by taking pictures and noting the date in your child's baby book.
