Baby gap teeth

Tuesday, Mar. 2nd 2010 3:50 PM

My son has a gap between his two front teeth

He is four and his baby teeth have  this gap between the two front teeth.  I am wanting to know if I should worry that his adult teeth will have the same gap?  Can a distist fix the gap while they are just baby teeth so that the adult teeth will not be gappy too?

    Well just because your son has gaps now with his baby teeth may not mean he will have gaps with is adult teeth when they start to come in. Adult teeth are larger.

    However whenever you feel concerned about a dental issue, there is no harm in asking your dentist for their oppinion. That what dentist do. A dentist can monotor how his adult teeth come in.

    I think you are worried for nothing. My son was the same, when his baby teeth started coming in his teeth had gaps too. When is adult teeth came in they are perfect. No gaps in site.

    Talk to your dentist if you are still bothered by the gaps your son has. Since every child is different speaking to your dentist should ease your own personal worries about your son teeth.

    My daughter baby teeth are a little gappy too. Our current dentist does not seem to think it is any thing to worry about at this time. He said that he would just keep an eye out for how her adult teeth start to come in.
