If your little one has already turned 6 years old and has not yet lost any baby teeth, don’t worry, mom! Each child follows his or her own pace of development. However, a very common reason why teeth are slow to fall out is the lack of space in the mouth. When the jaw doesn’t have enough room, permanent teeth can erupt in the wrong position or even become impacted, which can affect the bite and future alignment. <\/p>\n

\ud83d\udd0d What can you do?
\n\u2705 It is important that your little one has had his or her first checkup with the children’s dentist by age 5. An early checkup helps to detect if there is little space, a delay in eruption or an alignment problem.
\n\u2705 If the permanent teeth begin to erupt without the baby teeth falling out, it is not just about one particular tooth, but about how the whole mouth is growing. Before thinking about extracting a baby tooth, the pediatric dentist should evaluate why this is happening and if there is a space or developmental problem.
\n\u2705 Regular checkups at Ziving and good dental hygiene are key to preventing complications and ensuring that your child’s teeth grow in healthy and well aligned.<\/p>\n

Children’s oral health is a process in which every detail counts. If you have any doubts, consult a specialist to avoid problems in the future. \ud83e\uddb7\ud83d\udc99<\/p>\n
