Having
a baby?
You're going to
have a baby. Many plans to make for that little life that will be.
But wait a minute. That little life is already here, and developing in
truly amazing ways. Even in the tiny jaw bones things are rapidly
changing. By the fourth month the formation of the tooth structure has
started. By the sixth, all 20 of the baby teeth have started to
develop. By birth, calcification of these teeth is on its way to
completion, and there is beginning formation of the first permanent molars
although these won't appear in the mouth until age six.
Although it
occasionally happens that a tooth erupts before birth, it is quite rare.
We can, however, expect to see the first baby tooth at about six months with the
other teeth appearing in a predetermined pattern until 24 months. In order
for these teeth to be well formed and healthy, their developing conditions must
be ideal. That depends on you, Mother-to-be. The quality of your
baby's teeth depends largely on the care you give your body.
