Sir, My grand son is seven plus years now. We removed two of his upper front milk teeth three months back because they did not go automatically.I want to know whether the permanent teeth will appear soon.How long will it take? Is the delay in going the milk teeth and appearing of the permanent ones because of Calcium deficiency?
Dear friend.  Thanks for sharing your concern. Donot worry permanent tooth will erupt.it generally comes in the age of 6 to 8 years. Eruption of teeth depends upon the amount of root formation completion. If 2/3 root development has taken place then it is likely to erupt in oral cavity. This you can confirm by taking an IOWA(X-ray).visit your dentist. IF YOU SEE A PERMANENT TOOTH BUD THERE THE TOOTH WILL DEFINITELY ERUPT. Calcium deficiency alone cannot be attributed to this. But yes definitely take good nutritious diet as the child is in growing years. Hope this helps. Thanks.
