Hi, your concern is valid, usually permanent teeth erupts within 6 months of falling of milk teeth. But sometimes it may take little longer .
What about the adjacent front tooth ??? Is it present in the mouth?? If not we may wait for few more months . If yes then I will advice you to go to your nearest kids speciality ( Pedodontist) dentist and get his gum pad checked if it showing signs of tooth present , you may wait for some more time to erupt and if it is not than a small incision on the gums can be given to facilitate tooth to erupt.
Next Steps
Please visit your nearest Pedodontist
