The development of the dentition already in embryonic life 7., 8. will start in. The foetus needs calcium and phosphate for healthy bone and teeth development, which it gets from the mother’s bloodstream. To do this, you need the right growth hormones and vitamin D. The order of the emergence of milk teeth can be roughly determined in chronological order.
Of course, there may be abnormalities (previous or subsequent fractures) that do not necessarily indicate a pathological condition.
The eruption of milk teeth (the teething) approx. It starts at 6 months of age with lower incisors, and starts at about. a 24. will be completed by one month. As mentioned above, the process can vary by 1-5 months.
Teething is a condition that affects every child differently, some children are less affected by it and many find it difficult to cope. You may need to use herbal or anaesthetic gels to relieve pain and inflammation.
A deciduous teeth are anatomically similar to permanent teeth. Each milk tooth has a remaining counterpart, except for the first milk teeth. A The differences between deciduous teeth and primary teeth are sometimes only obvious to the dentist. It is important that both the parent and the child are aware that there is a remaining tooth in the child’s mouth. A However, the care of deciduous teeth is no less important than that of the permanent teeth, as the premature loss of deciduous teeth can affect the permanent teeth, causing orthodontic or other developmental problems.
Decay of milk teeth
Our practice is often visited by expectant mothers, and we try to prepare and inform them about oral care during pregnancy, and to raise awareness of common mistakes parents make.
Decay of the deciduous teeth is possible after they have emerged in the oral cavity, if the predisposing factors for decay are present. What could be a predisposing factor? It is common for parents to give babies a sugar-sweetened pacifier or tea to help them sleep, which is not followed by brushing (obviously after the baby has fallen asleep).
This should be avoided at all costs! Do not get your child used to falling asleep with sugary drinks in his or her mouth, as this can lead to the so-called “sugar syndrome”. “The consequence of this is the development of ‘bottle tooth decay’, which causes the front teeth to become decayed and blackened.
In addition, caries is common in the milk curd, where in most cases caries of the furrows is observed. Their care is just as important as that of the remaining teeth.

A caries treatment of deciduous milk teeth, most often means filling the milk teeth. After removing the caries, a special sealant is placed in the milk tooth. It is particularly important to treat these because if the decay spreads into the tooth socket and from there into the periosteum, the inflammation can also infect the germ of the remaining tooth, causing subsequent pre-cusp abnormalities.
