New teeth coming through - very crooked

[rhubarbcat]

My 5yo had her first 2 teeth fall outthe other weekend, front bottom ones. I can now see the new ones coming through and they both look very crooked - one of them is at a 45 degree angle. Is this normal and are they likely to straighten up as they come through, or is it likely to mean a brace?

She's not due at the dentists for another 6 months, but think maybe I better take her sooner.

Dd's have straightened up as they've come through - I am amazed at how far all of her teeth are moving around as it's happening, and just how much her new ones have straightened. They started off quite crooked but a few months along the line they're much straighter.

DD1 were behind her baby teeth and crooked, but they have moved forward and straightened alot as she is growing.
Dentist is unlikely to do anything until all adult teeth are through even if braces are eventually needed

Thats good to know, thanks. I'll hold off with the dentist.

I asked our dentist re my dd teeth at her last appointment as her milk teeth were beautifully straight and the new ones aren't. He said they will move as more space becomes available for them and not to worry until they're all through and settled.

DD's front teeth were terribly crooked on the way in but now they are in place they are straight. I was worried too but the dentist assured me there was room for them and they would straighten and they did.

Yes ds bottom 2 teeth looked very crooked when they first appeared - but now they are fully grown they look just fine
