what is the time for my adult teeth to erupt after losing baby teeth?

Saturday, August 1st, 2009
Q.
Hi I’m 15 and still had two baby teeth (my canines). I got xrays and it revealed that my adult teeth were sort of coming in.. So my orthodontist recomended i get them pulled so i did. Its been about 1 month since i’ve gotten them pulled, i can see them through my gums and they hurt a bit when i touch that area. I was wondering how long they will take to erupt? or what is the average time for them to erupt after losing your baby teeth? Also i will be seeing my ortho in about 2 weeks. But i reeeaallly want to know if i could get braces with even my adult teeth missing? ( JUST THOSE TWO ) Thanks

Ive a hole in my gums and im worried about toxicity leaking advice

Thursday, July 30th, 2009
Q.
Hello Dr. Moore: Thank you for answering my question, and with such quickness. I have a follow up question to ask you. The tooth I was telling you about in my first question has broken as a result of an unattended cavity which I had not realized had rotted part of my crown. As a result I was eating something which broke the tooth in half (the crown). So I now have a hole in my gum where the tooth use to be. Would you still recommend using mouthwash and brushing? Also, from your knowledge and sound of my case is my tooth able to be salvaged and should I worry about any toxicity leaking into my system at all? Is this something that requires immediate attention, it just happened yesterday and I probably won’t be able to make it to the dentist until saturday sometime should I try to go in sooner? Sorry for all the questions and I appreciate your response once again!!! Thank you

I’m sure it will wait until Sa… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
