ANSWER: Dental

Twenty


The 20 baby teeth, or primary teeth, begin forming below the gums before birth. The two lower front teeth (central incisors) are generally the first to erupt. This typically occurs around six months of age, but can vary by a several months from child to child. Most children will have a full set of baby teeth by the time they are three years old.

Some children are actually born with a tooth or teeth. These are called neonatal teeth. They are true baby teeth and not extras. If your child is born with a tooth or has one erupt shortly after birth, a dentist should evaluate the situation.
