ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The first permanent teeth that emerge in the oral cavity are the maxillary and mandibular first molars at around six years of age (six-year molars). They erupt distally to the deciduous second molars.

Detailed explanation-2: -At about the age of 6 years, the first permanent molar teeth erupt. These 4 molars (2 in each jaw) come out behind the child’s baby teeth. Other permanent teeth, such as the incisors, canines, and premolars, erupt into the gaps in the gum left by baby teeth that are lost.

Detailed explanation-3: -The average age for losing the first tooth is 6 or 7 years old. And the first ones to fall out are usually the first ones that came in, the bottom front teeth.

Detailed explanation-4: -Instead, the first permanent teeth to come in are generally a child’s “first molars, ” which erupt in the empty space in the back of the gums when the child is somewhere between the ages of 5 and 7.

Detailed explanation-5: -The six-year molars are permanent, adult teeth that begin to erupt just behind a child’s second or second-year molars at around age six. Since these teeth are new growth, they will not fall out and be replaced by new teeth like your child’s baby teeth.
