babies teeth dont have to worry about caffine in take and coffe or smoking ruining their teeth. That helps of course...plus childrens teeth dont have roots like adults and i think that has alot to do withit as well.

Some babies have discolored teeth from medications, fluoride in the water or other conditions, and babies can get decay and cavities. They need to have their teeth brushed starting when they first appear, using a cloth or very soft small brush, and small amounts of toothpaste specially made to be safe if swallowed.
In fact, babies have a high risk of decay if they are allowed to go to sleep with a bottle of anything other than water, and feeding high sugar things in bottles increases the risk. Your cousin may just be lucky so far, or you may just not realize he has his teeth brushed, too.

I don't have an answer this time because I think that it's pretty much been covered. I just want to say that, yes, children's teeth do have roots just the same as the adult's teeth. The reason that they come out without roots is that, as the adult teeth make their way to the surface, they resorb the roots of the baby teeth until there is nothing left to hold them in. Then they fall out and the adult ones take their place. =)

You sound like your doing a good job even nonetheless you in basic terms brush them as quickly as an afternoon, dont hardship I even have braces to and ive been getting quite lazy now that its summer. yet you ought to truly brush thrice an afternoon, especially reason you have braces, once you get them off you ought to have white blocks on your tooth in case you dont...and there no longer tremendously in any respect. And the undesirable breath...i heard gum makes it worse...and that i kinda have faith it through fact in case you consume gum and your abdomen is empty it creates acids on your abdomen and that's the place the undesirable breath is coming from... good success... oh ya...i think of mouthwash whenever you sweep your tooth ought to help to :)

NOT THEORIES JUST FACTS.
BABY TEETH HAVE A DIFFERENT PROPORTION OF DENTIN THAN ADULT TEETH. DENTIN IS YELLOWISH IN COLOR.
WHY DOES THIS MATTER?
BECAUSE, ADULT TEETH IN THEIR NATURAL STATE HAVE MORE OF A SLIGHT YELLOW SHADE (very faint) THAN BABY TEETH. WHAT THIS MEANS TO MANY ADULTS ISTHAT A FAINT SHADE OF YELLOW EXISTS TO THEIR TEETH, WHICH IS NOT SEEN IN BABY TEETH. THIS FURTHER EXPLAINS THE CONSUMER'S PURCHASE OF WHITENING PRODUCTS TO ACHIEVE A SMILE AS WHITE AS SNOW.

Teeth yellow with age and certain food and drink, namely coffee, tea and sodas. Babies don't drink those items and have brand new teeth so there you have it. :)
