Newborn teeth: what should I do if my deciduous teeth erupt prematurely?

Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? Although it is rare, some newborns are born with small deciduous teeth! What the hell is going on here? Let's talk about this topic and see how to deal with this situation.

Early eruption

Among 1,000 normal newborns, one lucky one will have "premature eruption of deciduous teeth". Most of these early eruption deciduous teeth are lower incisors, which may be normal deciduous teeth or teeth beyond the normal number. It should be noted that due to the hypoplasia of these teeth, the roots may be hypoplastic or have no roots at all, so they are often very loose and are in danger of falling off and being inhaled into the trachea.

Early extraction

Whether it is normal or not, as long as it is possible to loosen or fall off by itself, you should seek the help of a professional doctor as soon as possible to take it out. If the teeth are not loose but affect the sucking action, breast-feeding or biting the oral mucosa to form ulcers, they should also be considered for removal. Of course, if there is nothing wrong with the teeth, you can choose to keep them.

Ask a doctor to check.

If there are many deciduous teeth in the newborn's mouth, it may be related to endocrine or genetic factors. At this time, it is more important to find a doctor in time.
