Children’s teeth

The dentition development in children can be very different, as can tooth eruption after the development of the teeth.

Most babies are born toothless, so from the 6th month the tooth crowns from the first tooth slowly slide through the jaw. The first milk tooth is usually a milk incisor that breaks through, whereby at the end of the first year of life all eight incisors can usually be seen. The timing of tooth eruption as well as the order in which teeth break through in the child can vary individually. Delayed teething is not a cause for concern in young children, and an unusual order of tooth eruption is no cause for concern. Regular visits to the dentist with the child make sense so that the dentist can control the development of the teeth or identify and intervene in the wrong way from the dentition in good time.
