Pediatric Dentistry for Teenagers
By age 12 most children have only adult teeth because all their baby teeth have fallen out.
Before Dr. Ryan was a pediatric dentist, he was a general dentist (adult dentist). So we see children up to age 17.
Age 17 is around the age most people’s wisdom teeth start to come in. Wisdom teeth are the “3rd molars”, and the last teeth to come into the mouth.
Pediatric Dental Excellence can determine if these teeth need to be removed, and provide you with a referral to an oral surgeon.
