Is it good to have gaps in your baby teeth?

Gaps in milk teeth are generally normal and cannot be evaluated as good or bad. Children usually start to grow milk teeth in 6 months, 2 ~ 3 years old eruption of all milk teeth, the replacement of permanent teeth in 6 ~ 7 years old, during the period of time as the age of children’s jawbone will gradually develop and grow, and milk teeth no longer increase, resulting in a gap between the milk teeth become larger, is a normal physiological phenomenon. The gap between children’s milk teeth can provide enough space for the normal eruption of permanent teeth, because the permanent teeth are usually significantly larger than the milk teeth, occupying a larger position, which is conducive to the eruption of all the permanent teeth are aligned, so the gap between children’s milk teeth is a normal thing. When you find a gap in your child’s milk teeth, it is usually a natural phenomenon and you don’t need to worry too much.
