Teeth are a very strong and precious thing on a person's body. Although teeth may not seem obvious, they play a very important role in a person's life. Generally, everyone has to undergo a tooth change in their life, usually around the age of six. Can baby teeth grow after they fall out at the age of two?
1、 Can a 2-year-old baby tooth grow if it falls out
After deciduous teeth fall out, permanent teeth will definitely grow out. Generally, tooth replacement is done after the age of 6. If deciduous teeth fall out again, the permanent tooth germ is generally not affected and can sprout normally. However, due to the early loss of baby teeth, it may be relatively difficult for permanent teeth to sprout later on. Sometimes baby teeth fall out too early because without the resistance of baby teeth, it may affect the growth of permanent teeth.
2、 The process of changing teeth for children
Children's tooth replacement usually starts around the age of 6. The physiological shedding of the first deciduous tooth mostly occurs around the age of 6, but there are also cases as early as 4 years old or as late as 7-8 years old, so there is no need to worry. Natural deciduous teeth that fall off have no roots and have a gradually eroded surface. Parents should pay attention to observation and not confuse it with broken tooth roots of deciduous teeth.
A person will grow teeth twice in their lifetime, namely baby teeth and permanent teeth. There are 20 baby teeth, usually starting to sprout at around 6 months old, and they grow fully by 2-3 years old. There are 28-32 permanent teeth (the number of wisdom teeth is 0-4), usually starting to grow around 6 years old, and growing fully by 12-13 years old (wisdom teeth vary from person to person). Therefore, the tooth replacement period is usually between the ages of 6-12 for babies. There are certain rules for tooth replacement, simply put, it is a certain time, a certain order, according to the principle of "symmetrical left and right, bottom first, top second", symmetrical left and right, bottom first, top second is for teeth with the same name.
Generally speaking, children usually have their teeth replaced around the age of six. However, if the baby teeth fall out early or later, it is not a big problem. If parents are worried, they can also consult a dentist. The loss of baby teeth has little to do with permanent teeth, but it may affect their eruption slightly if they fall out too early.
