What is the eruption sequence of baby teeth? Which
tooth comes out first? Which tooth comes after? Many
parents simply aren't aware of it and yet it is very important
to recognize any abnormal eruption pattern.
See the diagram below, the time frames are only estimates.
It varies among individuals. Therefore, it's more
important to recognize the eruption
sequence rather than
the exact eruption time.
The sequence is as follows, central incisor > lateral incisor >
1st molar > canine > 2nd molar:
The structure of the tooth includes dentin, pulp and
other tissues, blood vessels and nerves imbedded in the bony
jaw. Above the gum line, the tooth is protected by the
hard enamel covering. See diagram below:
