How long for permanent teeth to grow in after baby teeth are lost?!


Question: How long for permanent teeth to grow in after baby teeth are lost!?
My son is 6 1/2, and lost all four of his front top teeth at various times, but all within a couple of months of each other!. It is now about six months later, and I see no sign of the new ones coming in!. Is this normal!?

He's my 3rd child, but I can't remember how long the others took!. Thanks!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi,

Permanent teeth usually come in between the ages of 6 and 8!. There are several factors that can affect how long it takes!. For example if the baby teeth were lost abnormally (e!.g!. knocked out accidentally) it may take quite a while before the permanent ones come in!. Infections of baby teeth before they fell out etc!.

To answer your question, I wouldn't panic just yet, permanent teeth usually start appearing around age 7!. However, you should probably take him for a check up with a dentist, they'll do an xray to make sure everything is alrightWww@Answer-Health@Com
