Tooth replacement (permanent dention) | Milk teeth

Tooth replacement (permanent dention)

After the milk teeth have fully matured from the age of 6-7 years, a change of teeth follows in humans between the ages of 6 and 14 years. This change of teeth is usually only completed between the 17th and 30th year of life by the eruption of the wisdom teeth. The permanent teeth also emerge from the jaw in an orderly sequence.

The first molars usually break through first, which is why they are popularly called “6-year molars”. Then the central incisor of each quadrant (6th – 8th year of life) appears, followed by the lateral incisor (8th – 9th year of life), the canine of the lower jaw (9th – 11th year of life), the first premolar (10th year of life). – 12. year), the canine in the upper jaw (11.

– 13. year), the second premolar (11. – 13. year), the second molar (12. – 14. year) and the whiteness tooth (17. – 30. year).
