A. It's normal for children to lose their front teeth around the age of 6, and the new ones typically start coming in within a few months. If your son hasn't had his new teeth come through yet, it's important to be patient, as the timing can vary. To support healthy tooth growth, ensure he’s eating a balanced diet rich in calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorus, which help in tooth development. You can also encourage him to brush his teeth twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and avoid sugary foods that could affect his dental health. If the new teeth don’t emerge within a few months or you have concerns, it's best to consult with a pediatric dentist to rule out any issues.
