When do permanent teeth erupt?
The replacement of primary teeth with permanent teeth occurs between the ages of 6 and 14-15. Once the permanent teeth erupt, they are treated similarly to adult teeth. Permanent teeth erupt during a period when proper oral hygiene habits are not yet well established, and there is usually an excess of gum tissue around them. This further complicates cleaning. Therefore, parental and dental professional supervision is necessary until the age of 10-12.
