At this age Multiple teeth are seen because both milk teeth and permanent teeth are present in mouth and gum swelling around new teeth is also common. Just visit pedodontist for proper diagnosis and treatment if necessary
Hello sir,
As I understand your daughter is still in her growing age,so it's normal to see a certain level of misalignment in the teeth pattern. Nothing to worry about.
However, if you feel the teeth are far too much misaligned and she is having pain around her ear or clicking sound while opening her mouth, then you may consult an Orthodontist.
Next Steps
As for gum swelling,you can buy a Chlorhexidine mouthwash for twice daily use. Visit a dentist for a better check up advice.
Hi,
Share some pictures. It is advisable to meet an Orthodontist regarding the teeth alignment. Best time to treat her alignment is after her last permanent tooth erupts.
