Something weird about my teeth?

Question

It's kinda weird. I'm turning 11, yet I still have a lot of baby teeth. Is this a dental problem, or is this ordinary?

Answer 1

This is well within the "normal" range. As an 11 year old, you should probably have about 12 baby teeth left. That's average. I've seen some kids who still have a few baby teeth at 15 or 16 who turned out just fine as far as their bite goes.

(I'm not talking about those who had no permanent tooth to follow the baby tooth; just dental age delayed patients.)

Answer 5

Your tooth look high-quality! in case you fairly think of that they'd desire to be fastened nevertheless, i do no longer propose braces. they're painful, costly, and not so alluring. i'd get invisalign in case you have the alternative.
