Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 My youngest (not my child w/ Ds) had this happen - they finally pulled the baby tooth.I noticed last night while Amber was brushing her teeth. I usually let her brush and then I try and get the major parts. Anyway, while brushing I noticed something one her gums in the front at the bottom. Turns out it was a tooth coming in. She has not lost any. I wanted to ask if anyone has gone through this. Just wondering what to expect from the dentist. WE just went a few weeks ago for a cleaning. She was not due for x-rays so maybe that is why they did not catch it. They did say her back molers were coming in. It is for sure coming in , In the wrong place . It is in the back of all of the other teeth in the front of her mouth. So when it comes up all the way it will be very visible.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Hi Carol, Sam had his permanent teeth come in right next to his baby teeth on the bottom, the baby teeth never came loose. His bottom area sort of looked like shark teeth with two rows being present. During his last bronchioscope we had his Dentist come in and pull 5 teeth.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 , I wonder if they have to be sedated for that. Or if it can be local in the office.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Sue, So I guess this is something that does not have to be fixed fast.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Sam’s Dentist kept thinking they were going to loosen up but they didn’t. After they were pulled all his teeth went back into perfect alignment. Not all of them were doubled but the other tooth was right below.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 My son 27 still has 1 baby tooth and his adult tooth is also coming in next to it. The DDS said he will not pull it unless it gives him trouble as it will probably fall out in time. It is mostly just a little root left I guess not the whole tooth.iammamapie wrote: , I wonder if they have to be sedated for that. Or if it can be local in the office.
