Content: The process of puppy teething begins as puppies enter their third month — weeks 12 to 16 — and lasts two to three months as their replacements sprout into place. An adult dog’s mouth contains 42 teeth in total, and all should be visible by 6 months of age. In the order that they erupt, the permanent set includes: 12 incisors. The first baby teeth to erupt are the first to be replaced. Between weeks 12 and 16, or three to four months of age, the deciduous incisors start being forced out by their permanent versions. All permanent incisors should appear by 5 months of age. Incisors are precision cutting instruments. In the wild, they help a dog remove flesh from as close to the bone as possible. They are also the primary teeth used in self-grooming.
