Notice a new tooth growing in behind a baby tooth that hasn’t fallen out yet? 🦈🦷 That’s what we call “shark teeth,” and it’s more common than you’d think!
Most of the time, the baby tooth will loosen and fall out on its own within a few weeks as the permanent tooth pushes it out. Wiggling it gently can help move things along.
If it’s been sitting like that for more than a couple months, give us a call so we can take a peek. 💙
