Baby teeth are very important to your child’s health and development. They help him or her chew, speak and smile. They also hold space in the jaws for permanent teeth that are growing under the gums. When a baby tooth is lost too early, the permanent teeth can drift into the empty space and make it difficult for other adult teeth to find room when they come in. This can make teeth crooked or crowded. That’s why starting infants off with good oral care can help protect their teeth for decades to come.

milk teeth or primary teeth developed in womb itself but erupt after birth at 6 months ,sometime tooth eruption can be seen earlier like in 4 months and sometimes at the age of 1 year only one tooth appear .these teeth are not permanent hence deciduous permanent teeth come after shedding of milk teeth.
CARE OF MILJ TEETH:-
1.As soon as tooth appear on baby's gum we should clean it on regular basis.
2.In initial stage we can use a wet towel to clear on and around the teeth.
3.even before eruption clean gum with wet and clean towel.
4.As soon as all the teeth come in position you should start brushing for your toddler.
5.first give demo on how to brush tell them to spit up and rinse mouth thoroughly with water .

Baby teeth are very important to your child's health and development. They help him or her chew, speak and smile. They also hold space in the jaws for permanent teeth that are growing under the gums.Milk teeth help a child speak – without them, a child can't form simple words with their mouth to communicate and speak clearly. Milk teeth help children to chew and grind their food properly, which in turn allows good nutritious foods to be included in their diet such as nuts, fruits, vegetables and grains.

A baby is usually born with no visible teeth in their mouth.However,in a new born baby,there are 20 fully formed milk teeth or primary teeth lying underneath the gums.

suman negi Mom of 3 children 4 years ago

Yes hygiene starts before the growing of the milk teeth. As the milk teeth starts growing you must clean your baby's gum with a wet cloth after every feeding and at night also you should clean them. You give some water so the baby so that no last content of milk should left on the gums.The milk teeth is very important for the to grow properly because they make space for the permanent teeth and if you see any cavity between milk teeth it's ok need not to worry because the permanent teeth will get their space properly.
