another new tooth question

ds1 has started losing his baby teeth. The bottom 2 adult teeth are coming through but their upper edges are all jagged. Is that normal- do they turn smooth with use??? I don't know any children his age so nothing to compare it with. God knows what we'll do if it isn't- he won't open his mouth for a dentist.

Totally, normal, they wear down with time!

dd1's two new teeth are exactly the same, they look like little tiny white castle battlements, I think it is totally normal!

Yep, mine were frilly when they came through too. Are smooth now

oh thank god for that- he doesn't do dentists.

ds1 is quite happy to go to the dentist- he sits on the chair, presses the buttons to go up and down then goes home again. absolutely won't open his mouth. he must wonder why he gets taken there to ride on a chair!

um, have to say mine are still frilly. My sis's are the same tho not as bad. Don't know anyone else who still has frilly teeth tho, so don't fret - it's because my top teeth slope out a bit and my bottom teeth in a bit (I sound gorgeous, don't I?) so they didn't get worn down properly to a straight line.

love 'frilly' as a description of teeth btw
