Frequently Asked Questions

My son just turned 7 and has had a pulpotimy and a crown on one of his bi-cuspids. Now it is really loose. Is it too soon to loose that tooth?

The tooth that looks like a bicuspid is a baby molar. This is pretty early to lose that tooth, but there's no way to prevent it. A space maintainer may be necessary to hold the space open until the bicuspid erupts.
