When do most children get all of their permanent teeth?!


Question: When do most children get all of their permanent teeth?
I'm just wondering. I lost all of my milk teeth when I was 9. I heard some were at the age of 12 or 13, so when do most children get all of the permanent teeth?

Answers:

Usually age 12 or 13. Everyone is different though. Some will lose teeth earlier, others later. Refer to the chart from the ADA that I have linked:

Wisdom teeth are much later and are quite variable

I am a dentist



Most children get all of their teeth out around 9-11 years of age. I was thirteen when I lost all of mine but I had to have surgery to get them removed. I now have braces to make room for all the teeth they left in (It was pretty messed up before)



The first permanent teeth to erupt are the first molars at about 6 years behind your last milk teeth
And yes you are right.. you might have lost them around that time. but the front teeth a little sooner.
