Patient's question:
My child is now 7 and a half weeks old, which is the age when teeth start to fall out. However, he is growing his teeth too slowly, and his front teeth are not growing well either—they have a gap in the middle and are quite wide. He also sweats a lot from the back of his head when sleeping. What could be the reason for this? What should we pay attention to? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, a child's milk teeth are generally around 7-8 years old, and they have started to be gradually replaced by permanent teeth. The eruption of teeth can be fast or slow, and it also has a process, not something that happens overnight. Therefore, the eruption of your child's teeth is normal. The gaps between the newly erupted front teeth are also normal, and they will gradually close as other teeth erupt. There is no need to pay attention to anything. I hope this explanation brings you relief.
