Parents often confuse permanent teeth with milk teeth, leading to the mistake that tooth decay and then another tooth will grow instead.
Teeth or confusion is a permanent 6-year-old molar (the first molar is 6 years old)
To help mothers distinguish permanent teeth and teeth, note the following:
* Children 2 years old: complete milk teeth
* By the age of 6 notice the first permanent teeth (large molars) that grow behind the molar: the tooth is larger than the next tooth, and counting from the center of the jaw is the sixth tooth. While the baby teeth count only 5
First permanent jaw teeth do not replace any other teeth.
The first teeth to replace the milktooth doorway is the permanent middle canal at birth at age 7. Between the ages of 7-8, the incisor of the jaw is permanently on the jaw. When the upper teeth are usually very large. Parents often worry about the two front teeth because it is too big, not in proportion to the face of the child. But since this is the permanent tooth and the tooth of an adult, it does not change as it grows and it only fits with the jawbone of the toddler (18 years old). At the age of 7, the jaw bone is too small, the jaw bone size continues to grow until the child is 18-20 years old.
Thus, to distinguish permanent teeth from milk teeth we must pay attention
First of all teething: Before 6 years old,
After the age of 6, attention is paid to the first permanent molars
The chewing surface of the molar is larger than the teeth
Between the ages of 8 and 12, on the teeth whitening jaw with permanent teeth should pay attention to the size of the tooth, the entire permanent teeth are larger than the teeth.
The color of the permanent teeth is darker than the teeth.
At age 12, the baby's teeth have been replaced and the child has 28 permanent teeth.
Note: the efficacy of the treatment can vary depending on each patient’s condition.
