When molars erupt in children diagram. Eruption of permanent teeth

Changing teeth for a baby is a serious period in his life, because the future health of the oral cavity and the correctness of the bite depend on it. Parents often have no idea about this, so many questions arise.

Read about when children's molars erupt, how to understand that a child is undergoing changes in the oral cavity, and how to care for new teeth to avoid diseases.

Symptoms of the appearance of molars

Changing incisors, canines and molars occurs as follows: new teeth destroy the root of the milk teeth and push them out of the gums.

You can find out that the eruption of molars in children is approaching by the following symptoms:

• increasing the spaces between teeth;
• the tooth is loose;
• loss of teeth;
• redness and swelling of the gums.

Teething can cause a lot of inconvenience for your baby:

• body temperature rises;
• gums swell and become sensitive;
• a runny nose appears;
• pain in the gums.

As the molars appear, the baby becomes more irritable and tearful. Itching and sore gums prevent him from sleeping and eating normally. Sometimes there are problems in the digestive system, such as loose stools or constipation.

When changing teeth, children's immunity weakens, which can lead to infectious diseases. To prevent this from happening, contact your pediatrician.

The duration of teething varies for each child. Therefore, it is unknown how long such discomfort will last. But don't worry. Perhaps no unpleasant changes will occur in the body.

If the baby still experiences discomfort, then you can bring down the temperature with antipyretic drugs, apply a cool compress to the gums and give the toddler a drug that will dull the pain.

The temperature during the eruption of permanent teeth rises to 37-38 degrees; in children, this condition can last several days before the appearance of a molar tooth and after. If it is higher and accompanied by a cough and runny nose, this is a sign of the development of a cold. Seek advice from your pediatrician.

Scheme and sequence

After the milky ones fall out, the radical ones take their place. The cutting proceeds according to the following scheme:

• The age of the child when the first teeth - sixes - begins to emerge is approaching 6 years. They are located behind the second primary molars.
• The primary incisors in the center are being replaced by the central ones.
• The lateral teeth replace their milky predecessors.
• The quadruples or first premolars replace the molars.
• The lost primary fangs are replaced by permanent ones.
• Fives replace second molars.
• The second molars appear later, immediately after the molars.
• At the age of 16, children begin to develop wisdom teeth. They cut through very painfully.

You have become familiar with the procedure for the eruption of molars in children. In the photo, see how the permanent teeth begin to grow.

Start and end of the process

Molar incisors begin to develop in the baby while still in the womb at 8-9 months of pregnancy. The first permanent teeth appear when the baby is 6 months old. At one and a half years old, the central molars begin to erupt.

After a year, the side ones appear. If the baby is already 5 years old, get ready for the fact that baby teeth will soon begin to fall out, and molars will grow in their place. Most of them are formed before the age of 10.

Already at a fairly mature age, wisdom teeth usually erupt. Often, for its final appearance, the help of a surgeon is used.

When does the change occur?

The table shows the timing of the eruption of permanent teeth in children.

There is no need to worry if the sequence is broken or the child’s teeth erupt earlier or later, since the data presented are averaged, and many conditions influence the growth of the baby’s teeth. Only a doctor can judge the child’s development, so there is no need to panic, better consult a doctor.

In the following video, the orthodontist will talk in detail about the stages of changing baby teeth to permanent ones and give useful recommendations to parents:

What determines the growth rate?

Most often, incisors, canines, and molars are replaced at 6-8 years of age. But there are several factors that delay or accelerate their appearance:

1. Molar incisors do not appear. Situations when, after the loss of the mammary molar, the molar does not erupt for a long time are not uncommon. The reason for this can only be determined by a dentist. Specialists take an x-ray showing what stage of growth the tooth is at. After this, the doctor determines the reason for the deviation from the schedule.

   It may be a hereditary predisposition to long eruption or edentia - a disease in which all or several are missing. In the first case, you just need to wait, and the tooth will grow after a while. In the second case, only prosthetics will save you.

2. The appearance of incisors earlier than normal. This may indicate that the endocrine system is disrupted.
3. Painful sensations. A freshly cut tooth is not protected from the negative effects of microbes, so caries and pulpitis actively develop. You can read about pulpitis of baby teeth. These diseases are very painful, so you shouldn’t let them get worse. Otherwise, there is a risk of losing a tooth.
4. Unhealthy tooth appearance. Incorrect size, shape or color indicate problems in the body. If you notice that your baby's new tooth is different from the rest, consult your doctor for advice.
5. Cutting a tooth in the wrong place. Very often, the permanent tooth erupts even before the baby tooth falls out. As a result, the molar grows outside the dentition, which leads to malocclusion. Under no circumstances should you remove an old tooth yourself; consult an orthodontist.
6. Dropping out. Losing a molar can be a symptom of certain diseases, so you should visit a doctor. To replace it, prosthetics are used.
7. Injuries. A baby tooth that has recently erupted is more vulnerable. Injuries received during sports or games can cause parts of it to break off or cracks to appear in it. Consult a dentist who will restore the tooth using modern materials.

Young parents should pay attention to the order of teething in children. We will show a diagram, and also remind you of the main symptoms and sequence, the timing of this phenomenon, and provide a photo so that you can navigate the issue and not panic about it.

Although each baby’s tooth appears accompanied by whims and sleepless nights, it turns out to be a holiday for all family members. Parents should understand the child’s condition and facilitate this process as much as possible.

The order of eruption of baby teeth in children

The main point that doctors pay attention to first of all is the timing and order of tooth growth in children under 1 year of age. It is interesting that the rudiments for milk units are formed in the fetus in the womb. And they already appear on the surface of the gums closer to 6 months of the child’s life. There is a specific pattern for how baby teeth erupt.

Incisors

The very first “heralds” of a future dazzling smile are the central incisors, that is, the front four teeth, located two on each jaw. The lower ones appear earlier, at the age of 5-6 months, and the upper ones climb after them, with a possible lag of 30-60 days.

The incisors also include another four milk teeth, appearing on the sides of the central ones. The most successful period for this is 9-11 months for the upper jaw and 11-13 for the lower jaw. And although there are a huge number of cases of violation of order or a change in the child’s age when they appear, doctors still insist that such criteria are considered the norm.

Molars

People call them the first molars. They are located immediately behind the fangs, which have not yet grown in the child. Dentists expect the appearance of molars in babies aged 12-16 months.

But the second four of this set is cut through only after the child turns two years old.

Fangs

The turn of this group begins at approximately 16-20 months and they are located just between the first molars and incisors that have already appeared. It is the teething of these units that causes the child the most difficulties and temporary health consequences.

To better demonstrate the timing, we will provide a table. It indicates the most common time frame for the appearance of teeth, but you still need to understand that each child is individual and may not fit into accepted norms. However, it is believed that by the age of 2 years the entire set of baby teeth should appear, which is 20 pieces.

How many teeth should a child have? Formula

So that you don’t have to remember a large number of numbers and check the readings in the tables every time, there is a simple way to easily navigate. So, it is enough to subtract four from the child’s age in months and you will get the expected number of teeth.

But this principle only applies for up to 24 months. By the age of 3, a child should have erupted all 20 milk units, even if the overall timing or order has been disrupted.

Sequence of eruption of permanent teeth

The number of adult units differs from milk ones - instead of 20 temporary ones, 32 appear. The first among them are the so-called “sixes”, that is, molars. They follow the primary molars, which, in turn, changing to permanent ones, will bear a new name - premolars. The growth of molars occurs at 6-7 years of age and this process can begin even before the change of the children's row and the first loss of milk units.

• The central incisors on the lower and then the upper jaw fall out and permanent ones appear in their place. This process begins at 6-7 years of age in the lower jaw, and continues about a year later in the upper jaw.
• The lateral incisors can be replaced at 7-8 years old, starting similarly from the bottom row, and after 12 months on the top.
• Milk fangs will fall out at 9-10 years and 11-12 years, respectively.
• Children's molars will be replaced by permanent premolars at the age of 10-12 years and, unlike other teeth, will appear first on the upper jaw.
• The second quadruple of premolars will erupt at 11-13 years of age.
• And the last molars, called “eights”, will appear much later - closer to 17 years and may take a long time to erupt, and in some cases, be completely absent.

We also present these figures in the table.

How can you tell when your baby is getting his first teeth?

For some children, this process is so calm and imperceptible that parents discover the first tooth by accident, touching it while feeding with a spoon or the edge of a cup. And yet, more often than not, teething brings with it a number of striking symptoms:

Helping your child relieve pain symptoms

If it is obvious that the baby is bothered by soreness and itching of the gums, you can try to alleviate the unpleasant symptoms:

1. Buy quality and suitable teethers that are made of hypoallergenic materials and have a liquid filling. After keeping them in the refrigerator for some time, you can give them to your child. It is the application of such cold that will relieve inflammation and pain, eliminating even unpleasant itching.
2. Using gauze soaked in boiled water or herbal decoction of chamomile, make a light one, without strong pressure.
3. You can also find special gels with a local anesthetic effect in pharmacies. In this case, it is important to carefully study the instructions and not use the product too often.
4. In folk medicine, honey is used for these purposes, spreading a small amount of it on the mucous membrane.
5. You can treat your gums with a soda solution, which will relieve pain and inflammation for a short period.

In order to form correct oral hygiene habits, as well as prevent various dental diseases, parents need to start caring for it after the first tooth appears:

• It is advisable to take your child to the dentist once every six months.
• Don’t get carried away with adding sugar to your baby’s food and try to reduce the amount of sweets he consumes.
• Twice a day, morning and evening. Until two years of age, this is done only with a soft toothbrush, selected according to the appropriate size, and after that you can use baby paste.
• Try to ensure that adult saliva does not get into the child’s mouth - do not lick the baby’s spoon, pacifier, etc.
• Feed him a variety of foods, preferably high in calcium.

What problems might there be?

If you find that your baby has an incorrect teething order, you should consult a doctor to find out the cause of this phenomenon. This can happen in cases of genetic inheritance and is considered normal, or may indicate health problems.

Sometimes the following deviations occur:

• – complete absence of rudiments, which can be established no earlier than the child’s ten-month age. This problem appears as a result of disruption of the endocrine system or other internal organs. The doctor will prescribe medications that stimulate the growth of hard tissues or install implants.
• Retention is the inability of a tooth to erupt even in the presence of a rudiment. This may be hindered by a previously formed unit or too dense gums. During examination, the doctor will detect swelling of the mucous membrane, hyperemia, increased body temperature and soreness of the area. As treatment, he uses an incision in the gum or removal of the interfering tooth.
• Too early or late teething also indicates some disorders - problems with the endocrine system, the presence of a tumor, difficulties in enzymatic metabolism, diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, etc.

In the life of parents, the replacement of baby teeth with permanent ones is of great importance. This event is more important than the appearance of the first dental units, as it is often accompanied by complications. For this reason, every parent should have basic information about the eruption of permanent teeth and know what to do in any given situation.

Differences between permanent molars and baby teeth

It’s rare that a mother will not be able to tell the difference between a child’s baby tooth and a molar, as she carefully monitors the eruption process. Permanent and temporary dental units have the same appearance, but differ from each other in the following ways:

• the color of the enamel of baby teeth is lighter, permanent teeth have a natural yellowish tint (for more details, see the article: differences between baby teeth and permanent teeth);
• molars are more dense in structure;
• temporary ones have an enlarged pulp (the inner contents of the tooth) and thinner enamel;
• in permanent teeth the length prevails over the width;
• The roots of the milk units are thin and short.

Structure and functions of molars

Dental units are necessary for humans to bite, hold, chew food and articulate. After changing teeth, there should normally be 28 chewing elements, 4 wisdom teeth appear by the age of 25. Normally, adults have 32 molars, divided into groups and performing special functions:

According to the anatomical structure, all dental units are identical. They consist of several parts:

1. The crown is the visible part located above the gum.
2. The neck is at the level of the gum.
3. The root holds the tooth in a special cavity in the jaw - the alveolus. Chewing elements sometimes have several roots, for example, large molars have 2 to 3. Small molars usually have 1 root.

There are several layers of fabrics:

At what age do children begin to develop permanent teeth?

Permanent dental units grow in children from 5-6 to 15 years of age. Wisdom teeth come in individually. There are many known cases where they erupted at the age of over 30 years. Parents should monitor the process of changing teeth and know at what age and order the teeth come out correctly.

Dental consultations must be carried out several times a year. If necessary, you can contact more often (units wobble, but do not fall out for a long time or grow crookedly, elevated temperature and other symptoms are observed).

The process of loss of milk and the order of growth of indigenous

Starting from the age of 5, a person’s dentition changes. The permanent teeth push out the milk teeth, causing the second teeth to become loose and fall out. If they do not fall out in time, the permanent dentition forms crookedly

The molar chewing elements appear in the following order:

Teething symptoms

The most easily recognizable sign of eruption of molars in children is an enlarged jaw. This is because permanent teeth require more space. For the same reason, the distance between the milk chewing elements increases.

When permanent teeth erupt, the child may become more irritable, even moody, and there may be a deterioration in appetite. Children behave in much the same way as when teething (see also: photo of gums before teething). The gums itch and hurt, which is why the child’s behavior changes.

A mandatory symptom is increased salivation. Compared to the appearance of the first milk teeth, it does not appear so brightly, but it is present. It is important to teach your child to wipe his mouth with napkins - at 6-8 years old this will not be difficult. Saliva contains many bacteria that can cause skin irritation.

Another sign is redness of the gums as a result of the inflammatory process. However, inflammation can be caused by infection. To rule out this option, it is advisable to consult a dentist. The gums also become swollen, which can cause pain. In this case, you should stock up on special medications.

It is impossible not to mention the main symptom of the eruption of radical units. If baby teeth are loose, it means permanent teeth are appearing.

How to get rid of pain and other unpleasant sensations during teething?

When permanent teeth are cut, many children do not experience any discomfort. However, if your baby is unlucky, you should know how to relieve pain and care for the oral cavity during this period:

Under no circumstances should you loosen baby teeth, eat nuts, caramel and other hard foods, or treat the sockets with hydrogen peroxide or alcohol. The child should be examined by a dentist 2 times a year.

Possible pathologies of the formation of molars

In some cases, molars do not grow as they should (more details in the article:). There are many possible problems:

Every mother eagerly awaits the moment her baby gets its first teeth. After all, this period is often considered one of the first in a child’s growing up. Now the little one will slowly learn to chew food that is new to him. And if everything is more or less clear with milk teeth, then how does the eruption of molars occur in a child? Let's try to figure this out.

Molars, premolars and the like...

One of the main periods during which the child’s body develops is the eruption of the child’s molars. It is often quite painful, so parents should be prepared for this and understand when their baby will have permanent teeth.

Let's go back a little. The period of formation of milk shoots is two years. There are twenty of them in total, including two pairs of indigenous ones. The exact time when the first permanent teeth begin to erupt has not been established. This depends on many factors: the baby’s heredity, the quality of drinking water, diet, and the climatic conditions of the region where the child lives.

When mentioning the first molars, we must remember that they appear in toddlers at approximately 12-17 months of age. Mom should not worry, even if teething is somewhat delayed. They will definitely appear by the 32nd month.

The second molars erupt later - by 24-44 months. The process is completed by 38-48 months.

Each baby is individual!

You should take into account the fact that both the growth and development of each baby are strictly individual. This is also true during teething. Therefore, the actual timing of the appearance of permanent teeth in a baby may be delayed or, on the contrary, may appear somewhat earlier than in his peers.

Baby teeth stop growing at around thirty-six months. And by the age of five or six years, the first signs appear that baby teeth are being replaced by molars (for some children this happens later). Permanent teeth complete their formation process at approximately 12-14 years of age.

The older you are, the calmer you are.

Before moving on to the topic of permanent teeth, it is worth familiarizing yourself with the baby teeth eruption schedule. This information is shown in the image below.

It is worth remembering that all time frames are averaged; small deviations in timing are not pathological.

When the baby turns five or six years old, the time for sleepless nights, big whims and temperature changes ends for parents. Now mothers of preschool children do not have so many problems preparing food for their children, because with the help of their twenty teeth they can easily cope with any food.

But parents should not forget that there comes a time when molars replace milk teeth. It is this stage that moms and dads should monitor especially carefully, because subsequently healthy teeth will be the key to the health of the entire body.

Molars remain with a person for life. And this is true, because they grow only once and are not subsequently replaced by others. But this does not mean at all that the first milk teeth do not have roots. It’s just that their roots are not so large, and over time they are destroyed so that the molars can then easily push out the milk teeth.

In what order do permanent teeth erupt?

Let's figure out how molars appear in children. The order of eruption (the photo below shows the arrangement of permanent and baby teeth) is usually the same.

The first to be seen are the “sixes” - these are the teeth located in the dentition immediately after the second primary molars. They are usually called first. And the existing baby molars will be replaced by teeth called premolars. According to the description presented below, you can see at what age to expect changes in the child’s dentition. But it is worth considering that these are average time frames.

When children reach six or seven years of age, permanent molars gradually appear. This usually happens before the first baby teeth fall out.

So, children's molars begin to appear. The cutting order is often as follows:

• at 6-7 years of age, the incisors in the center of the lower jaw begin to grow;
• at 7-8 years old, the same incisors appear on the upper jaw of children, at the same age the lower “twos” also appear;
• a little later (at 8-9 years old) the lateral incisors grow;
• when children reach 9-10 years of age, fangs appear on the lower jaw, and a year or two later they appear on the top;
• at about 10-11 years old, the first premolars appear on the upper jaw of children;
• up to 12 years, the appearance of the first lower premolars can be expected;
• at the top, second premolars appear in children at 10-12 years old, and at the bottom at 11-12;
• second molars appear on the lower jaw between eleven and thirteen years of age;
• at approximately the same age (12-13 years), the second molars appear at the top;
• above and below the third molars appear after 17 years.

This is how molars appear in children. The order of cutting through them can be somewhat complicated for the neophyte. But mommies, as is usually the case, will figure it out.

Local symptoms in older children

In general, the signs of eruption of molars in a child of one, another, or third at any age are identical. This is an absolutely normal physiological process for the human body. But in most cases, children experience discomfort during the appearance of teeth, from which they cannot escape.

So, the eruption of baby and molar teeth in children is caused by the same symptoms. The only difference is in the reaction to discomfort. The loss of primary teeth and the appearance of permanent teeth should occur on schedule and be under the close attention of a good pediatric dentist. He will be able to facilitate the process and help in the formation of the correct bite.

Molar teeth appear in children aged five to six years. Just at this time, the roots of baby teeth gradually dissolve and the interdental space increases. Little by little, the molars will displace the milk teeth, so it is then that it is necessary to monitor the formation of the bite.

What are the symptoms of growing permanent teeth?

Of course, all parents know how painful the period of teething can be. Parents should pay close attention to this process.

As soon as the time approaches for the teething of children's molars, the symptoms of this process are not far off. The first is that quite noticeable gaps begin to appear between the baby’s teeth. As the child matures, his jaw also grows. Gradually, a place is being prepared for larger teeth, which will already be permanent. Dairy will loosen over time.

Sometimes it happens that a child’s baby tooth stands quite firmly and firmly in its usual place, but at the same time the molar begins to erupt. This moment should not go unnoticed by adults. It is necessary to take the child to the dentist in a timely manner so that the baby tooth can be removed. Otherwise, the root will grow crookedly, and correcting the situation will take quite a lot of time and material resources.

Jaw enlargement

The first most characteristic symptom of the beginning of the appearance of permanent teeth in a child is an increase in the size of his jaw. Mothers may notice that there are small gaps between adjacent baby teeth. And the body should prepare in advance for the change from milk teeth to permanent teeth, creating the necessary conditions for the growth of “adult-like teeth.”

The first molars can announce their “arrival” quite seriously. Children experience pain, and parents experience trouble. Babies sleep poorly and anxiously, are often capricious, irritated, and lose their appetite. Symptoms of the eruption of permanent teeth include a cough or runny nose, as well as an increase in temperature in children. But doctors believe that these are completely unnecessary signs of teeth appearing. Most often, they can appear due to the fact that immunity decreases, because it is at this time that the vulnerability of the child’s body increases.

Salivation

We can say that an almost obligatory sign of the appearance of permanent teeth in a child is increased salivation. When the second stage of tooth formation begins, this symptom will not be as obvious as in the original version, but there will also be inconvenience.

Six- to seven-year-old children already know how to wipe their cheeks and mouth with a sterile napkin or handkerchief. If this is not taken care of, irritation will begin in these places due to the fact that the delicate baby skin is too sensitive. But there are many different bacteria in saliva.

Diarrhea

One of the signs of the appearance of permanent teeth in children is diarrhea, which can last for several days. In this case, loose stools are a consequence of the fact that there is an infection in the child’s body. And the reason for this is simple: the child often puts dirty hands or other objects into his mouth. This is facilitated by very abundant salivation. If the diarrhea is short-term (that is, three times a day) and there is no admixture of blood cells in it, it will not be dangerous for the child. It will not be superfluous to observe a doctor, because during this period, when the child’s immune system is quite weakened, a new infection may be added and aggravate all the symptoms.

Condition or cause?

If it happens that the appearance of molars in a child occurs much earlier than a certain period, it is necessary to inform the pediatrician and consult a pediatric endocrinologist. If teething begins late, this indicates an imbalance in hormones, which also forces you to consult a doctor.

In some cases, moms and dads attribute symptoms to the condition rather than looking for the real cause. The same thing happens with teething in children. If the symptoms are expressed a little more clearly, there is no need to immediately blame everything on teeth.

Symptoms that shouldn't exist

Symptoms that should not be present include:

• the child’s temperature when teething is much higher than 38.5 degrees;
• the cough is quite severe and lasts for a long time;
• any bleeding;
• over several days the child had vomiting and diarrhea many times;
• The child has a runny nose with yellow or green mucus.

If such symptoms appear, both in infants and older children, it is necessary to consult a pediatrician to rule out diseases with similar symptoms.

Parents, give your baby a helping hand!

Now we already know when a child’s molars erupt. It is also clear that the process of the appearance of new teeth is quite painful and lengthy. Therefore, mothers and fathers should know how to help their child with the eruption of molars at this time.

If a child’s temperature rises and some alarming symptoms begin to appear—cough, runny nose—you should immediately consult a pediatrician. It is the doctor who will be able to determine the exact cause of what is happening and prescribe anti-inflammatory drugs (Vibrukol, Ibuprofen).

So, the eruption of molars in children begins. The gums in which a new tooth is about to “hatch” become swollen and painful. Pediatric dentists may recommend using special gels (Kamistad, Dentinox) or chilled “rodents”.

The eruption of a child’s molars is the very period when it is necessary to be more attentive to the baby’s oral hygiene, for which it is necessary to select toothpaste according to his age. For example, toothpastes designed for the age group from 0 to 3 years can reduce the number of harmful microbes in the baby’s mouth. This will make the difficult period of new teeth appearing much easier.

It is with these numerous symptoms that molars and baby teeth appear in children. The procedure for cutting them through was described earlier. Despite the fact that in this situation, it would seem that everything has long been known and understood by parents, it is necessary to pay attention to the smallest changes in the child’s behavior and well-being in order to avoid possible complications in the future.

You shouldn’t relax when your child’s front baby teeth erupt. Native followers will appear quite soon. During the period from 1 to 3 years, eight of them erupt in children's gums. Any parent who has already encountered this will say that the biggest problem is the molars and premolars.

These eight teeth cause more pain and anxiety than the small incisors. And this clearly affects your child. As a rule, children during this period become restless and irritable. During this time, it is necessary to monitor what babies put in their mouths. Some babies cope with teething more easily, while others cry day and night.

When do children get molars?

Between 12 and 18 months, a child's first two primary molars appear. These teeth cause the baby severe pain. The third and fourth erupt at the age of 20-30 months. The most painful ones are the sharpened fangs that poke through the gums. Square-shaped teeth erupt between 16 and 20 months.

Why do 2 year old molars cause so much pain as they grow?

The eruption of these teeth will be different from previous ones. This process will not cause symptoms of illness (fever, etc.) as it did before. Now the child will become more irritable. The molars erupt very slowly. Your baby will have difficulty sleeping and breastfeeding or bottle feeding will be painful. Therefore, it is better to drink it from a mug in order to maintain daily fluid intake.

How can you relieve this pain?

There's not much you can do about it. But the tips below will help ease this process for both you and your child.

1. Give your baby something cold to bite on.

This does not include children's teething rings with gel. Since the child now has teeth, he/she may bite through them. The best option is pre-chilled healthy raw vegetables or fruits. It could be carrots or banana.

You can also use refrigerated bagels, bread and sugar-free crackers. But watch your child so that he doesn’t accidentally choke.

2. Rub your gums with teething gel

You can rub a special gel on your child's gums that causes a slight numbness. But this is a temporary solution and will not work if the baby licks the gel.

3. Consult your doctor

Ask your doctor if your child can take baby paracetamol to relieve pain. This remedy should only be used in emergency situations and should not be overused. Use it if all other options have failed and your baby is still in pain.

Does a baby get sick when the molars erupt?

No. This does not happen in the case of indigenous dairy products. At the age of two, when molars emerge, your baby may be exposed to other infections that are common during this period. So pay attention to what exactly is causing the pain. It could be growing teeth, or it could be something else. At this stage of life, children are susceptible to ear infections, coughs, colds or urinary tract diseases.

If there are symptoms, but sucking or chewing does not cause him any discomfort, then it is better to take him to the doctor.

In what cases is it necessary to visit a doctor?

To understand this, you need to know symptoms that are not characteristic of teething. Symptoms may vary among children. However, below are some signs to look out for.

Notes:

• Two-year-old molars can be difficult to deal with, especially when you've endured the eruption of your predecessors. Now your baby must go through a severe test, which causes him stress.
• Basically, the hardest period is the first 3-5 days, and then it gets easier. Therefore, be patient and monitor the symptoms.
