Most babies will have baby teeth around 6 months old, and as they age, baby teeth will gradually emerge. And within a certain age range, baby teeth will completely grow out. But some parents are not clear about the age range for normal growth of baby teeth. So, how many teeth does a 3-year-old child grow?
The growth of baby teeth follows the physiological laws of this period, arranged in a certain order at a certain time, and develops symmetrically on both sides. The first ones to sprout are the lower incisors, which grow in pairs. After growing four lower incisors, four upper incisors will continue to sprout.
Moreover, after the upper and lower incisors are covered, there will be growth gaps left for the soon to grow deciduous teeth, which will also become small tiger teeth. After a period of time, the four small tiger teeth will gradually grow and sprout from the gaps left behind.
Usually, babies have around 15 baby teeth by the age of one and a half. After one and a half years old, the molars in the second primary teeth will gradually emerge. Grinding teeth will be tightly placed behind the first deciduous tooth, usually around the age of 2 to 3, and all other molars will grow out. At this point, the baby's upper and lower jaws will each have 10 small deciduous teeth, so around the age of 3, the baby will have 20 small deciduous teeth. And in the following two to three years, babies will make full use of their baby teeth when eating, until after the age of 6, they will enter the stage of replacing baby teeth with permanent teeth, which is also the beginning of their second period of teething.
