Question about baby spoons?

This is probably a stupid question, but when do (or did!) you stop using the baby spoons with the rubber tip? I understand they are coated in rubber to be easier on the baby's gums (and I like that they're not too deep so they hold a good amount of food), but my baby has 8 teeth now, and the spoon doesn't touch her gums. We have a really cute set of infant silverware (no rubber tips!) that was given as a baby shower gift, and she uses those just fine... I was just curious as to when others stopped using the rubber spoons altogether. Thanks!

I stopped using baby spoons when my son got teeth. He was like 8 months old. He was self feeding himself at that age anyways.
