How long does it take for teeth to grow fully through?
I’m 17 and I went dentist today and found out I still have a baby tooth in my mouth that is trying to come out but my adult tooth is stuck so it cant push it out. I’ve got to have a operation to get it out but the tooth is at the front of my mouth and i’ve always been proud of my teeth so it’s going to ruin my confidence. How long will it take for the new tooth it take place of the baby tooth?

A dentist would construct a removable prosthetic device called a "flipper." It is made to look just like your regular teeth and will take the place of the gap until your permanent tooth grows in… which actually happens faster than you would think. No respectable provider would make you walk around without one of your front teeth, so be sure to ask about a flipper device next time you go in. Good luck!
