What's the difference between "baby" teeth or dental term " deciduous teeth" and permanent teeth? At between six and ten months of age, most infants begin to get their "baby" teeth.
The Central Incisors (front middle teeth) usually come in first, and then teeth begin appearing on either side and work their way back to the second molars. By the time a child has reached three years old, most of the "baby" teeth should be present.
The process begins to repeat itself when the child is about seven years old. The Central Incisors fall out first and are replaced by permanent teeth. By the age of 21, most people have all of their permanent teeth.
"Baby" teeth are important because they hold the place for permanent teeth and help guide them into correct position. "Baby" teeth play an important role in the development of speech and chewing.

A non permanent tooth is one that first comes in and will fall out. Permanent teeth come in after the non permanents leave and will be there forever as long as you take good care of them.

Baby teeth are temporary teeth. At about age 7 the baby teeth (only the front upper and lowers) start falling out to make room for the permanent teeth and their root systems. Baby teeth are softer and without a deep root system designed for less damage to the mother while breast feeding.

Agree with veneer problems. Only movie stars with $$$$ can afford upkeep on veneers. Get your teeth straightened , and whitened first. Just be sure to tell dentist you don't want them so white that they look fake. You can always go back to have extra whitening done, but if overdone the first time, there is NOTHING they can do to fix it. Bonding stains, and they grind the tooth down, so that you will have to have it bonded again. If your smile is now pretty good, don't do either veneers or bonding. You don't need a movie star smile to be good looking.

the non permanent teeth have roots that are not embedded in the come, so they are susceptible to falling out, which they do. The permanent teeth have roots embedded very well into the gums, and thus, are not susceptible to falling out, which they don't unless they rot.
