  2. Tooth eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_eruption

    The first human teeth to appear, the deciduous (primary) teeth (also known as baby or milk teeth), erupt into the mouth from around 6 months until 2 years of age, in a process known as "teething". These teeth are the only ones in the mouth until a person is about 6 years old creating the primary dentition stage.

  3. Human tooth development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth_development

    The primary teeth typically erupt in the following order: (1) central incisor, (2) lateral incisor, (3) first molar, (4) canine, and (5) second molar. [45] As a general rule, four teeth erupt for every six months of life, mandibular teeth erupt before maxillary teeth, and teeth erupt sooner in females than males. [46]

  4. Deciduous teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deciduous_teeth

    The eruption of these teeth ("teething") typically begins around the age of six months and continues until 25–33 months of age during the primary dentition period. Usually, the first teeth seen in the mouth are the mandibular central incisors and the last are the maxillary second molars .

  5. Human tooth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_tooth

    Tooth eruption in humans is a process in tooth development in which the teeth enter the mouth and become visible. Current research indicates that the periodontal ligaments play an important role in tooth eruption. Primary teeth erupt into the mouth from around six months until two years of age.

  6. Wisdom tooth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisdom_tooth

    Generally wisdom teeth erupt most commonly between age 17 and 21. [1] Eruption may start as early as age 13 in some groups [ 23 ] and typically occurs before the age of 25. [ 24 ] If they have not erupted by age 25, oral surgeons generally consider that the tooth will not erupt spontaneously.

  7. Teething - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teething

    Teething is the process by which an infant's first teeth (the deciduous teeth, often called "baby teeth" or "milk teeth") appear by emerging through the gums, typically arriving in pairs. The mandibular central incisors are the first primary teeth to erupt, usually between 6 and 10 months of age and usually causes discomfort and pain to the infant.

  8. Permanent teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_teeth

    The first of the permanent teeth to erupt are the permanent first molars, right behind the last 'milk' molars of the primary dentition. These first permanent molars are important for the correct development of a permanent dentition. Up to thirteen years of age, 28 of the 32 permanent teeth will appear.

  9. Impacted wisdom teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impacted_wisdom_teeth

    Wisdom teeth, as the last teeth to erupt in the mouth are the most likely to become impacted. They develop between the ages of 14 and 25, with 50% of root formation completed by age 16, and 95% of all teeth erupted by the age of 25, however, some tooth movement can continue beyond the age of 25.
