Milk teeth emerge through a baby's gum during the first couple of years of life.By the time of 2.5 to 3 years all 20 of the teeth should have fully emerged. These are the deciduous teeth or primary teeth,also known as baby teeth or milk teeth. The first set of teeth in human growth and other development.

Milk Teeth
A baby is usually born with no visible teeth in their mouth. However, in a newborn baby, there are 20 fully formed milk teeth or primary teeth lying underneath the gums. These teeth loosen and fall out between the ages of 6 to 10 years to give way to adult teeth.

Caring for milk teeth
Although milk teeth are temporary, they still need to be kept free of tooth decay and require careful maintenance.

👶Tooth decay can occur very early on in a baby's life and is referred to as "baby bottle tooth decay🍼" or "nursing mouth syndrome." The condition occurs if the baby's teeth are frequently exposed to sugary liquids for prolonged periods.

👶Ways to prevent milk tooth decay are similar to those for preventing adult tooth decay and include maintaining good oral hygiene and not allowing an infant or child to fall asleep with a bottle containing formula, fruit juices or sweetened liquids.

Milk teeth is the first set of teeth in a human body which starts appearing during first year.
Right care taken of this set of teeth, helps to maintain healthy gums for adult teeth as well which appears later in life.

I follow these for my little one
#No sugar or milk left over in mouth for long time
#Brush 2ce a day with soft toothbrush
#When possible provide right amount of calcium intake(milk, oranges etc), and help expose to sunlight(vitamin D)
