Can a 25 year old man still have baby teeth?
Hi I just got back from the dentist office for a check up and cleaning. I have not been to the dentist like forever but I just got dental insurance though my job and thought I should have my teeth checked out even though I have no problems with them.
The dentist was a pretty cool guy. He said I was really lucky that I had no cavities and my gums are in good shape since I told him how long it has been since I seen a dentist. He told me that now that I have insurance I need to come in every six months. He also told me I have two baby teeth in the back so I have to make sure I floss really well back there because I did have some tarter on them.
Here is my question. I thought I lost all my baby teeth by now. How do I still have two in the back? He said they were fine and they did not show signs of being loose but why do I not have my adult teeth? Is the dentist right about them being baby teeth?
