Shadding of decay primary teeth
Hi,
I need some advice on whether I should send my 6 years old son to extract his badly decay front teeth. His teeth start to decay when he was 4 years old. Now at 6 years old, four of his front teeth are decay badly. Some people say that the front decay teeth will not shed naturally and the permanent teeth will not erupt properly. Is that true? I also read about, if primary teeth was extract too early, it will disrupt the teeth spacing and the permanent teeth will not erupt properly. Please advice. Thanks, Manaboleh. |

You should take your son to his dentist, about once every six months. His teeth start to decay when he was 4 years old. Now at 6 years old, four of his front teeth are decay badly. Some people say that the front decay teeth will not shed naturally and the permanent teeth will not erupt properly. Is that true? We haven't seen your son's teeth. His dentist can. Jeff I also read about, if primary teeth was extract too early, it will disrupt the teeth spacing and the permanent teeth will not erupt properly. Please advice. Thanks, Manaboleh. |

Now at 6 years old, four of his front teeth are decay badly. Some people say that the front decay teeth will not shed naturally and the permanent teeth will not erupt properly. Is that true? Definitely bring him to see a dentist and decide for extraction. Badly decayed, do u mean very very deep ones? If the decay are deep into the pulp and into the nerve and you leave them alone, it is possible that the permanent teeth will not form/develop properly underneath. I also read about, if primary teeth was extract too early, it will disrupt the teeth spacing and the permanent teeth will not erupt properly. Premature lost of baby teeth are likely to cause future spacing problems and you know the consequences right? The child will probably have difficulty cleaning the teeth at home properly and can cause periodontal problems in the future. Please consult a dentist immediately. Please advice. Thanks, Manaboleh. |
