Kids teeth not falling out, new ones already coming in?!


Question: Kids teeth not falling out, new ones already coming in!?
My 5 year old has her two front teeth on the bottom row about to come out!. The new teeth are already coming in, they've broken through and are coming in behind the baby teeth so they aren't "pushing" the baby ones out!. A week ago the dental assistant person said to "wait a week", but nothing has changed!. Has anyone ever heard of this happening!? It looks like we'll be taking a trip to the dentist but I'm wondering if we'll have to do this for all of her teeth!.
Thanks,Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It is very normal for the lower anterior permanent teeth to come in behind the baby teeth!. Once the roots are disolved on the baby teeth they will get loose and come out and then the permanent ones will move into place!. You did right by calling your Dentist, however it could take up to a month or so for the baby teeth to get loose enough to come out!. Just keep an eye on them and if you have further concerns make an appointment to the Dentist to have them checked!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, that happened to me when I was younger!. I just had the baby tooth pulled out!. It helps because if won't make the new adult teeth crooked!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

My friends had thata happen to her, she had to go to the dentist to get her teeth pulled out!. If you don't, the baby teeth will make the new teeth grow crooked!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

no, i had the same exact thing when i was little!. however, there are cases where children have to have all theri teeth pulled out when new teeth are coming in!. my sister has this because the roots of her teeth are so enormous!. she will be ok!. you will have to wait to look at x rays to see her roots of the teeth and the dentist will most likely tell you!. a lot of children have teeth pulled out, its the norm!.

I had to take my daughter to the Dentist last month for the same thing!.!.!.in the last year she had to have 5 teeth popped out by the dentist!. If the new ones are pushing the baby teeth then it is a pretty quick and easy job!. Of course you have to deal with the novacaine shot!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you must take the baby teeth out immideately otherwise the adult teeth are going to be horrible and crooked!. probably gonna have to wear braces!. try wobbling it a bit with your fingers and then just give the kid an apple to bite into it should come straight out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
