Ghost Teeth?!


Question: I took my 3 year old for a check up at the dentist and the x-rays showed that he had no adult teeth above his infant teeth. He's missing 1 front tooth and the two leading to the back from there. Anyone else hear about this and has this happened to anyone you know? He will have to get a bridge or surgery to place fake teeth into his gums eventually.

My dentist said that he's met a 23 year old girl who just had her milk teeth all through her life. I guess these cases happen more often than people think.

In the end, the girl had to get most of her teeth also pulled out and replaced with porcelains.
