Teeth Development
Child, Development Stages October 26th, 2009
My 5 year old Keatkeat has been so excited lately about his first molar.
“Mommy, I’ve got new teeth… See?!?! Ahhhh….. Can you see it? Ahhhh….. It’s coming out! Ahhhhh….. This side (right) and this side (left). Ahhhh…..”
Today, a different sentence, “Mommy!!! My teeth is shaking!” A face full of excitement with an index finger shaking his Lower Central Incisors vigorously.
“Mommy, I am a bit scared. Because when I bite food now, these 2 teeth (Shaky Central Incisors) are painful and my gums become painful…
But I am more excited than scared to see my new teeth because I can bite bigger things and harder things. So when Mommy? When will my teeth drop?! I’m sooooooo excited!!! “
“It just might be tomorrow… We shall see!”
“Yippee!!! This is soooooooo exciting!”

Oh, yeahhh, another kiddie lesson. When my daughter got sick the other week, I thought she was teething again . . . at 3. I’m not sure though. We guessed it might’ve been her molars. But at that age? Hmmm… Your child is 5. :)

We’ve been on the same exciting journey with Miss Pink. She is now missing her two top front teeth and one on the bottom as well.

Watch out that your milk teeth doesn’t overstay when permanent teeth has erupted – it might just go the wrong way. Consult the dentist and don’t count much on it that it will naturally fall off. About the molar, I believe it’s permanent now… Do watch out for deep grooves and cosult the dentist, it might help to get a sealant to prevent food impaction on grooves.
