The child has lost two teeth and they haven't grown back. What could be the reason?

Patient's question:

The child is 68 years old, and two lower front teeth have fallen out. One has grown back, but the other has only a small tip showing and hasn't grown further. What could be the reason? Is it possible that the adjacent teeth are obstructing it!

Doctor's answer:

During the process of teething, if there is a recurrence of retained deciduous teeth, it is important to visit the dental clinic promptly to remove the remaining deciduous teeth. In daily life, it is advisable to consume more foods rich in fiber and with a certain degree of hardness, such as fruits, carrots, beans, corn, and so on, to maintain a good stimulating effect on the deciduous teeth and ensure they fall out on schedule. Pay attention to oral hygiene. The above suggestions are for the question "A child aged 68 has lost two lower front teeth, with one already grown back." I hope this is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
