Why your child's baby teeth are important

Look after your kids' milk teeth

Although primary (or baby) teeth are of course only present during early childhood years, they still play an important role in the development of your child’s smile and long term oral health. That's because primary teeth:

• Help protect developing adult teeth

• Prevent jaw bone loss and gum deterioration

• Retain space within the mouth for the correct positioning of adult teeth

• Support the development of your child’s jaw and facial structure
