Question 1 of 5

The nurse is assessing the dental status of an 18-month-old child. How many teeth should the nurse expect to examine?

A. 6B. 8C. 12D. 16

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: In general, children begin dentition around 6 months of age. During the first 2 years of life, a quick guide to the number of teeth a child should have is as follows: Subtract the number 6 from the number of months in the age of the child. In this example, the child is 18 months old, so the formula is 18 - 6 = 12. An 18-month-old child should have approximately 12 teeth.
