Why has one of my teeth stopped growing?

Q.
Well, to pout the story to you, I’m twelve years old. My teeth have grown perfectly but this was until one stopped growing completely. What has happened to cause this? Is it bad for you if this problem remains? Hopefully it’s just taking time to develop. I haven’t asked anyone about whether or not this is a bad thing for my dental health. Will I be needing oral surgery to correct the problem and rectify my smile? I still have some baby teeth remaining my two front teeth came out fine. I think the tooth that is not growing is my eating tooth. Its on the top.On the left side it fell and is now growing. But my right side isn’t. Is it because my left side is taking the time to develop? Could you please advise me on this situation and tell me what steps I should take, Regards.

Hello. I would say that it is still too early to tell but mention this issue to your dentist when you go for a check up and they should be able to provide advice following a proper examination.
