Baby Teeth Will Be Lost. Why Should They Be Fixed?

    There are many reasons. First, the baby (primary) teeth provide a foundation and guidance for the permanent (secondary) teeth. If a child has teeth that are improperly spaced or have extensive decay, crowding, shifting or poor oral habits, early corrective treatment may be necessary to prevent more extensive treatment (including orthodontia—braces) in the future.

    Early tooth development also affects a child’s ability to eat, chew, form speech patterns and swallow. This is especially important for your child’s sense of social confidence and self-esteem. If baby teeth are lost early, cosmetic appliances and space maintainers are available to replace them, or to provide space for the permanent teeth to come through.

At What Age Will My Child’s Teeth Appear?

    Parents often ask this. Following is a chart with approximate ages. Be aware that these are only averages, and that your child’s tooth development may vary somewhat.
