Will your Second premolar teeth fall out?
Question:
At 13 yrs.
Is it a baby tooth that you should remove/pull?
Answers:
ok first of all there's no baby premolars,there's only baby molars or we call it E AND D for first primary molar (e)and second primary molar (d) and these shud be replaced by ur first and second premolars which once u have them they won't be replaced.4 ever.
For the upper and lower jaws u get ur 1st and 2nd premolars between 10-12 years old
lower 2nd premolar is the last erupting tooth in the lower jaw
upper canine is the last erupting tooth in the upper jaw
and normally u get all ur permanent teeth at age of 13 except for the third molar(wisdom) that wud continue 2 erupt untill 21 years old or might be impacted..
Ur second premolars may need 2 be extracted 4 2 resons,
-one of them is orthodontic treatment if u have crowded teeth and a small jaw there'll be no place 4 alignement,so extracting a premolar will give space and in the same time wont affect occlusion or mastication because the other premolar does the same function,but in that case we should extract the 4 premolars in both sides upper and lower
the other reason 4 extraction is badly decayed tooth that can't be restored..which i don't think that's ur case
other than this ur second premolar shud stay where it is..
NO! Do not pull it yourself!. If you are 13 years old, and you haven't lost it yet, there is a chance you may not have your permanent tooth underneath. Your parents need to take you to the dentist and have it assessed. There are some adults that still have primary teeth. (baby teeth) This is a genetic issue, for some reason or another your permanent tooth may not have developed. Have a dentist check it out, and then he/she can advise your parents on what to do.
no..it is not your baby tooth. the first and second premolar are your permanent tooth.. they come just once.....so don bother to pull it out.
