When will my child lose his/her baby teeth?
At Brighton Healthy Smiles, this is a common pediatric dentistry question and we tell our patients to expect their children to begin losing their teeth at approximately age 5. Baby tooth loss will usually begin with the front teeth first. Children will continue to lose baby teeth until the age of 12 or 13 when all of the permanent teeth finally erupt.
Proper maintenance and tooth care is essential throughout this period to promote oral health. Our family dentist in Brighton provides gentle and comprehensive care to ensure your child’s teeth develop properly. Call Brighton Healthy Smiles at (810) 227-6567 to make an appointment and ensure your child is on the path to good dental health with regular dental exams.
