Content: This is especially useful during the transitional time when your puppy is losing baby teeth and gaining adult teeth. After all of their adult teeth are in, it’s harder to determine an age range by studying their teeth. If you’re generally interested in learning more about your pup’s teeth, the American College of Veterinary Dentists breaks down the nomenclature of teeth in your dog. Here is a summary of your dog’s teeth and when they erupt: Baby Teeth
Deciduous Incisors – The deciduous (baby) incisors will most likely erupt when your pup is 3-4 weeks old. Deciduous Canines – The deciduous canines erupt next starting at 3-5 weeks of age. Deciduous Premolars – Then the deciduous premolars will erupt at 4-6 weeks old. Puppies have three baby premolars on the top and bottom of both sides. You can find a deciduous canine dental chart here. Adult Teeth
Permanent Incisors – Permanent incisors typically start to come in when your dog is about 3 months old.
