Adult teeth and baby tooth?
I had this problem when i was young. The dentist pulled the baby teeth and said that the adult teeth would then move up in place on their own. Worked great. I have straight teeth and never need braces.
Reply:Often the dentist will pull the baby tooth. It is supposed to come out anyway.
Reply:not sure, but i think sometimes, the perm. tooth will push the baby tooth out. If not, they may pull the baby tooth at the dentist.
Reply:I guess you should wait for the baby tooth to come out first but I don't know what you should do with adult teeth......
Reply:They us ally pull out the baby tooth. He need to pull out the baby tooth so, there can be room for his permanent teeth. You better go to the dentist soon. or else may have to see an orthodontist in a few years.
Reply:My son has that too, only the adult tooth is in front. Same thing happened to me when I was a child. The dentist will numb the area and remove the baby tooth. Not very painful at all, then the adult tooth will move into the proper position.
Reply:it happened to my niece,the tooth came loose in a short time and fell out,the adult tooth moved forward and her teeth look normal
Reply:I had it happen to me when I was little the baby tooth will be pulled because if not the adult tooth will come in on an angle
Reply:YEs it happened to me and my oldest son. you can go to the dentist but dont have to. he would maybe pull the baby tooth maybe not. i will admit that the new tooth may be a little crooked or off-center at first but it will straighten up.
Reply:It happened to me. And yes, it is important that you take him to the dentist if you don't want the tooth to stay crooked. They'll just numb the baby tooth and pull it.
Reply:This just happened to my 12 year old son. I don't know if it is the exact same case or not but the orthodontist said it was fine and the baby tooth finally came out on its on. You should take your son to a dentist for a check up.
Reply:I've seen lot of cases like that.The dentist has to pool the baby tooth out to give the permanent tooth more space.
