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?
