How long does it take for a child's baby teeth to grow new teeth?

Teeth are an important chewing organ for the human body. They also play an important chewing function in the human mouth. When there is a problem with the teeth, it will affect a person's normal gastrointestinal digestion and absorption. Normally, a person will grow teeth twice in his life, one is the deciduous teeth and the other is the permanent teeth. The time for permanent teeth to grow is around seven or eight years old, but after the deciduous teeth fall out, how long will it take for new teeth to grow?

How long does it take for new teeth to grow after the baby teeth are lost?

It is usually five months, and parents should also pay attention to their children's teething.

1. Generally speaking, new teeth will grow five months after the deciduous teeth fall out. A person has two sets of teeth in his life, namely deciduous teeth and permanent teeth. Generally, a set of deciduous teeth grows out 5-6 months after birth. These teeth are few in number, small in size, and have low chewing ability. The teeth are gradually replaced by permanent ones when they are about 6 years old. All deciduous teeth work in the mouth for about 6-10 years before they complete their historical mission and gradually leave the mouth.

2. After the deciduous teeth fall out, new teeth will generally grow in 5 months. If new teeth have not grown after 5 months, you need to consult a doctor. The normal replacement of deciduous teeth with permanent teeth is that permanent teeth emerge while deciduous teeth fall out. If permanent teeth emerge but deciduous teeth do not fall out, you should go to the dentist in time to have the deciduous teeth extracted.

3. It usually takes 2-3 months, and the specific speed may vary depending on the physical condition of each child. During the period of tooth replacement, pay attention to supplementing your child with calcium and nutrition, which can better promote the growth of teeth.

How to deal with the loss of baby teeth

Actually you can keep it as a souvenir, but you can also throw it away.

1. There is a folk legend that when the baby teeth fall out, new teeth will grow. If you want them to grow straight, you have to stand straight in the room and then throw them out. If the upper deciduous teeth fell out, they should be thrown under the bed; if the lower deciduous teeth fell out, they should be thrown onto the mosquito net above the bed. Stand upright and grow evenly.

2. The child loses his deciduous teeth under abnormal circumstances. At this time, parents should first check the child's condition to see if the child has any other wounds that require emergency treatment. Then take your child to the hospital for treatment.

3. As the roots of deciduous teeth are gradually absorbed, the deciduous teeth will fall off on their own. Fallen deciduous teeth generally have no roots, but sometimes they may have a very short root, and the tooth surface appears to be eroded, which can be easily distinguished from broken roots. The location where the roots of deciduous teeth begin to resorb is influenced by the position of the permanent teeth they inherit.

4. It can be used to regenerate body tissues to replace unhealthy or damaged organs, such as regenerating bones, regenerating hearts, and regenerating teeth.

Things to note when children change their teeth

1. Adhere to brushing your teeth every morning and evening, and master and use the correct brushing method to thoroughly remove food residues and keep your mouth clean.

2. Discover tooth decay and treat it early. When the deciduous teeth have not yet fallen out and the corresponding permanent teeth have already erupted, the deciduous teeth should be extracted early. If an extra tooth grows between two normal teeth, it should be extracted immediately.

3. Pay attention to the intake of calcium, phosphorus and fluoride in the diet, and provide vegetables and fruits rich in fiber. Do not eat too much sweets and candies. It is best to eat less sugar cane, especially when the small permanent teeth are just erupting. Do not eat sugar cane and eat less hard food.

4. When children are about six or seven years old, permanent teeth begin to erupt and replace the original deciduous teeth. Although some children's permanent teeth have erupted, the deciduous teeth often refuse to "give way", forcing the permanent teeth to grow from the inside of the deciduous teeth, forming "double-layer teeth" and causing the permanent teeth to be unevenly arranged.

5. During the period of children's tooth replacement, deciduous molars are prone to caries. If caries cause apical disease, it can affect the growth and eruption of secondary permanent teeth. Therefore, attention should be paid to the timely treatment and prevention of caries in deciduous molars. We must not have the wrong idea that "deciduous teeth will be replaced sooner or later, so there is no need to treat them if they are damaged." Doctor's advice: Try to keep the deciduous teeth until the permanent teeth erupt. If the deciduous teeth are lost prematurely, it often leads to insufficient space for the secondary permanent teeth to erupt and cause malocclusion.
