Has anyones children had their 2nd teeth come through without the milk tooth even wobbling? Behind the milk tooth inside the mouth?
Thanks! Reassure me!

I think it happens a lot, well to my two DDs it does! My youngest (aged 5)has four incisor teeth on her bottom jaw.
Two new big ones behind the milk teeth, looks like a shark Grin
They will work loose over the period of a few weeks, taken 9 weeks just to get wobbly enough to almost pull out!
Then the teeth 'move forward' into place (well it seems that way) Smile

happened to me, some came out by themselvs and some (further back bigger ones) were helped by the dentist - it wasn't too bad, nothing like having an adult tooth pulled out.
