Hello,
Neo-natal teeth can be left as it is.If it is causing a broblem to the mother in breast feeding the baby,then it can be easily removed by the dentist with the help of topical anaesthetic gels.

Natal teeth are not uncommon among new born
They as such are not a problem to child but hurt mothers during breast feeding
They can be easily removed by a dentist with small aneshetic gel applied on it
