9-month-old baby has no teeth—my mother-in-law says one thing, I read another.

Your son not having teeth at 9 months may have worried you, but this is actually a completely normal developmental variation. First teeth usually appear between 6-12 months, but in some babies this can be 3-4 months and in others 12-15 months. So what you've read is correct; your mother-in-law's concern may be based on older generation information.
Lack of teeth is not a sign of a problem until age 18 months on its own. What matters is your son's overall development—his weight, height, motor skills, social smiling are progressing normally; then waiting for teeth is fine.
But if no teeth have appeared by 18 months, consulting your pediatrician would be good. For now, there's no need to look for problems.
What you've read is correct; trust it.
