As for the exit of baby teeth, there are no exact or common dates for all children. However, we can approach the ages at which children's teeth often fall. In general, it will be after five and a half years when a long process of tooth decay and renewal begins. It is usual that after five years we begin to notice that some tooth moves and, at any given time, the first tooth will fall. The road has begun until the final denture is achieved.
There are 20 temporary or "milk" teeth. The moments of exfoliation or fall of each tooth are approximate, since there may be variations due to genetics or other reasons. The lower teeth, which were probably the first to appear, are also usually the ones that fall before.
- Lower milk teeth. The central incisors usually fall towards five and a half years or six years of age. The lateral incisors at six and a half years. The canines and the first molar make the change towards nine and a half years. Finally, the second molars fall at ten and a half years.
- Superior milk teeth. In general, these are usually the dates: central incisors and lateral incisors at six and a half years. The canines at ten and a half years. First molars at nine and a half years. Second molars at ten and a half years.
Although surely many parents can tell us that the teeth of their little ones accidentally fell before, since it is common that some blow or fall during the games end that milk tooth on the floor ...
Anyway, we have to keep in mind that delays or early rash In teething milk they are chronologically correlated with the eruption in permanent teething, so that a delay in the first exit of the teeth is usually related to a delay of several months in the replacement of the teeth towards permanent dentition. We should not worry about these different rhythms, unless they are accompanied by other oral problems.
Meanwhile, to maintain healthy teeth, we must follow the advice on how to clean the baby's teeth. The fall of baby teeth from the age of five It is inevitable, but soon they will be replaced by the final teeth that have to be cared for equally. And these are no longer natural substitutes.
