Q. My daughter, who is nearly 6, lost both of her incisors at the same time. Two months later her canines fell out. My concern is that although one of her incisors has grown through the other one hasn’t. And as already mentioned her canines are also now beginning to show through even though they fell out two months laster. I am worried that she has not got an incisor to come out and I was wondering whether if this can be possible and if so what can I do to help her. No one in our family has ever had this problem, although I have read on the internet that adult teeth in children can sometimes be missing and that it is genetic. Please help. How long should I wait before I can be sure that she hasn’t got a tooth to come out.
