In general, babies begin to teethe at around six months of age. However, every child is unique, and some have to wait a full year for the emergence of the first baby tooth (also known as \u201cdeciduous tooth,\u201d \u201cprimary tooth\u201d or \u201cmilk tooth\u201d).<\/p>\n

Baby teeth<\/h2>\n

While primary teeth begin to appear around the age of six months, the tooth buds start developing as of the sixth month of pregnancy. The various parts of the tooth, including the root and the enamel, also start to develop at precise stages during the mother\u2019s pregnancy. In other words, by the time a baby is born, tooth formation is already well underway.<\/p>\n

But at what exact age do the baby teeth appear?<\/strong> Below is a\u00a0timetable<\/strong> illustrating the different phases of teething:<\/p>\n

\"primary<\/p>\n

Teething: upper primary teeth<\/h3>\n

Incisors: between 7 and 12 months<\/p>\n

Lateral incisors: between 9 and 13 months<\/p>\n

Canines: between 16 and 22 months<\/p>\n

First bicuspids: between 13 and 19 months<\/p>\n

Second bicuspids: between 25 and 33 months<\/p>\n

Teething: lower primary teeth<\/h3>\n

Incisors: between 6 and 10 months<\/p>\n

Lateral incisors: between 7 and 16 months<\/p>\n

Canines: between 16 and 23 months<\/p>\n

First bicuspids: between 12 and 18 months<\/p>\n

Second bicuspids: between 20 and 31 months<\/p>\n

At what age do baby teeth fall out?<\/h2>\n

In most cases, the permanent teeth begin to come in at around six years of age. This is when the 20 baby teeth start to give way to what will eventually be 32 permanent teeth. The permanent teeth push against the baby teeth, wearing away the roots until the teeth fall out. This process is painless, unlike teething, which is very painful.<\/p>\n

Even though your child may be tempted to play with a loose baby tooth, pulling it out by force is strongly discouraged, as this can lead to significant bleeding.<\/p>\n

The formation of permanent teeth<\/h2>\n

The first adult teeth to appear are the six-year molars. They come in at the back of the mouth, behind the primary teeth. Below is another timetable showing when the baby teeth fall out and permanent teeth come in: <\/strong><\/p>\n
