Tiger teeth, i.e. ectopic eruption of teeth, may be caused by developmental abnormalities or premature loss of milk teeth.
1. Abnormal development: During the process of dental development, the amount of teeth is larger than the amount of bone, the size of the jawbone is not large enough, the teeth do not have enough space to erupt, and the cuspids in the maxilla erupt later, and at the time of eruption, the other teeth have already taken over the alveolar bone, and then the tiger teeth will appear.
2. Premature loss of milk teeth: If the milk cusp teeth are lost prematurely, the nearby permanent teeth may erupt and be able to occupy the position of the erupted teeth. When the cusp teeth grow out, they will be ectopic to the labial side, and the tiger teeth will be formed.
After the growth of tiger teeth, if it does not cause any impact, generally do not need special treatment, if it seriously affects the appearance, you can go to the hospital stomatology department, for correction.
