Teething how long till a tooth appears ?

My little one is almost 23 weeks she started teething about 5 days ago and is off her bottles it's a struggle to get her to take more than 2oz at a time even with calpol or nurofen or gel on gums nothing works I'm just wondering if a tooth will appear any time soon as she is drinking so little it's making me very anxious, should be having somewhere in the region of 900mls a day , today so far I've only gotten 400mls into her

Can you try rubbing something cold on her gums??? Or teething powders might help X it's horrible for them when the teeth start

Oh I have tried everything , she's quite petite so teethers seem too big for her she won't put them in her mouth . I'm actually putting the bottle teat in the freezer before her bottle but doesn't really help .

Sorry if it's obvious, but is it definitely teething? I kept thinking this but no tooth arrived- turns out I needed a quicker bottle teat!

Can be 5/6 weeks til it starts cutting, another 8 weeks plus til fully cut, depending on the tooth
