Third molar eruption
Sir
Greetings
My son aged 2 yrs (b:20/1/2014) is developing third molar's. As such he is not displaying any maladies but as parents we are concerned as to he having almost all his teeth prematurely.
He is also underweight at 11kgs and short stature at ~81 cms.
Please advise us if our concern mentioned above needs to be addressed clinically.
Thanks
Harmeek

Hello there....can understand your concern about your son....but just to add to your knowledge ...there are no third molars in children...it must be a milk tooth called second deciduous molar...need not to worry...
If possible, please upload a picture of it so that the exact situation can be understood...

Hi....it can't be 3 rd molar,so,need not to worry, and for premature eruption of teeth, I would like to suggest to visit your dentist because tooth eruption time is a range of time,so don't assume anything and visit your dentist.
