Every baby is different, so I would say there is nothing to worry about.
I did a quick search and came up with this

http://www.mothersbliss.co.uk/babyyear/teeth.asp

Quote:
On an average most babies get their first tooth at around six months although the most common range is between six and nine months. All babies are different. Some have a tooth present at birth whereas some may not have any teeth till they are one year old. It is not a cause of concern. Teething is known to follow a hereditary pattern, so if you or your partner started teething late, your baby may do the same

hope this helps!

As far as him not having teeth- I think it's fine. Some babies just get them later than others :) (You'll probably get more replies in Bringing Up Baby)
