• 9-10 years lower canine .
• 10-11 years, first premolar.
• 10-11 years, second premolar and first premolar.
• 11-12 years, second premolar and upper canine.
• 12-13 years, second upper molar, which called molar twelve.

Milk is the most important food for your baby, but when you fall asleep with a sucker in his mouth, the milk builds up and stays in the upper front teeth. The natural sugar in cow’s milk and quickly becomes acidic and starts the destruction of the teeth. Because this type of decay occurs only in the back of the upper front teeth, is not easily seen.
Pacha if feeding is used not only to feed the baby but to keep quiet or console, the only liquid that should be used is water. Any drink sweetened, carbonated water, fruit juices, milk for babies and “sugar water” can destroy the teeth.
Priate your baby begins to drink liquids from a cup and eating solid foods, you must be careful in selecting foods that provide a sensible diet and proper nutrition. Feeding habits run today, severely affect dental and general health for the rest of their lives.

5 Genes that determine the time of eruption of teeth
The formation of the teeth resulting from the coordinated action of hundreds of genes, but the first tooth tends to lag when a child is given five variants.
As explained in the open access journal Public Library of Science (PLoS) Genetics, geneticists from the United Kingdom and Finland have found five genes that determine the time when the baby teeth (milk teeth) out of a gum baby.
Specifically analyzed the entire genetic code of six thousand individuals from Finland and the UK included in the “birth cohort study in northern Finland (NFBC) and” Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and children (ALSPAC). These studies, in which it was closely monitoring the participants since the beginning of gestation until adulthood, provided the team of Professor Marjo-Riitta Jarvelin, School of Public Health, Imperial College London (ICL) , empirical data about the process of forming the teeth.
Their inquiries brought out five genetic variants that seem to determine the time of eruption of primary teeth from the gums. The first to appear are usually the lower front teeth, or central incisors. Then it happens the other teeth, starting earlier and ending above the side and rear. Interestingly, the same five genetic variants also determine tooth development at later stages.
