🦷 Did you know baby teeth start forming before a child is even born? 🤍
It happens much earlier than most parents realize.

Baby teeth begin developing as early as six weeks into pregnancy 🤰✨. Long before a child’s first smile appears, the foundation for healthy teeth is already forming beneath the surface. This early development is one reason prenatal health, nutrition, and early dental care matter so much. Once baby teeth erupt, they play an important role in chewing, speech development, and guiding permanent teeth into place as children grow 🌱🦷

❗️🦷 Did you know some kids actually grow EXTRA teeth? 😲
Yes, it really happens.

Some children develop what are called supernumerary teeth, which means extra teeth that form in addition to the normal set 🦷➕. These teeth sometimes appear right in the middle of the smile or behind baby teeth, where they can block permanent teeth from coming in properly. When that happens, removing the extra tooth may help guide adult teeth into a healthier, straighter position over time ✨. Early evaluation makes a big difference in planning the best next steps for a growing smile.

Have you ever heard of extra teeth before, or does this surprise you? 💬
We’d love to hear what parents are curious about when it comes to tooth development 🤍

❗️🦷 Did you know the very first toothbrush used bristles made from wild boar hair?
A fascinating moment in dental history 📜

The first true toothbrush appeared in China during the 1400s, featuring stiff bristles made from wild boar hair inserted into bamboo or bone handles 🐗🎋. This early design became the foundation for brushing tools used for centuries. In 1938, soft nylon bristles were introduced 🪥, shaping the modern toothbrushes families use today to support healthy smiles worldwide 🌍✨

"❗️🦷 By age five, nearly 60% of children have already had at least one cavity. 😳
That number surprises many parents 👀

Baby teeth have enamel that is about 50% thinner than adult teeth 🦷, which means cavities can spread twice as fast once they begin ⚡. This is why early dental visits and daily habits matter so much during the preschool years ✨. Protecting baby teeth early helps support comfort, development, and healthier smiles as kids grow 🌱

❗️🦷 Why would a two-year-old already need dental surgery?
It’s a question that surprises many parents 👀

At Smiles Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, we often see how frequent juice or sweetened milk in a sippy cup, especially at night 🌙, can harm baby teeth faster than candy. When sugars sit on teeth for long periods, cavities can develop quickly. One small change can make a big difference ✨. Gradually diluting juice with water over two weeks 💧, then offering only water, helps lower cavity risk and protect little smiles early.
