Oh my baby teeth
Baby teeth matter! While some just pop through without fanfare, others really let you know they are on their way! Do you know when to expect them?
This video gives you an idea of when to expect each tooth to arrive in the mouth. First the incisors then the first molars then the canines then the second molars - they don't even come in a logical order! Baby teeth are important for eating, speaking and smiling so take good care of them! They need to be healthy to do their job until the permanent teeth have replaced them around 12 or 13 years. That's a lot of TLC - tooth loving care 🙂 -
