Around the age of two, when your childâs molars come out, there are other infections that are commonly associated with that time in your childâs life. Take note of what is causing your child pain, whether it is really the molars or if it is something else.
When babies start cutting teeth, the front teeth appear first, and then the molars come along three to six months later. By the time your toddler is three years old, he or she may have a full set of baby teeth 20 in all. Teething pain may start a month or two before the first tooth appears, since the gums become swollen and tender as the teeth start to exert upward pressure on them.
