Perhaps you did not attach any importance to this, but baby teeth have their own time of loss.
How old is it?
The generally accepted norm is the age of 5-6 years. It works according to this rule: if the first teeth erupted at 5 months, then the molars will begin to appear at 5 years old. They fall out in the same way as they grew: first, the lower incisors are loosened, then the upper ones. But even if the order is changed, there is no need to worry. At 6-8 years old, the lateral and central incisors change, at 9-11 years old - the lower canines, at 10-12 years old small molars appear teeth, upper canines, and by 13 years after the appearance of the second molars, the formation of a permanent bite ends.
Be sure to pay attention
When a milk tooth falls out, its socket may bleed. To do this, wipe it with a sterile swab. And the child should not be allowed to eat or drink until two o'clock.During the growth of teeth, the child should be given food containing calcium: cheese, cottage cheese, milk and kefir. It is also worth adding fruits and vegetables that you can gnaw: carrots, apple, corn.
