Hello doctor..my son is 7 years 4 months . he lost his deciduous upper central incisors 5 and a half months ago but his permanent incisors have not erupted. An x-ray of this region reveals permanent toothbuds presence. Can something be done to speed up the eruption of these teeth bcoz the next deciduous lateral incisor tooth has started to move.
