Will a new tooth grow after a 2nd tooth (not baby tooth) has been removed?!


Question: Will a new tooth grow after a 2nd tooth (not baby tooth) has been removed.?
My 9 year old daughter had one of her bottom teeth removed. However, i think that the dentsist made a mistake and removed a 2nd tooth instead of the baby tooth. Will a new tooth grow.?.. and if not , what should i do.?

Thanks To All

Answers:
No it will not grow back if it was a adult tooth (2nd tooth). What makes you think it was a 2nd tooth.? If it was a second tooth then your daughter when she gets older will either have to let the teeth behind it close the space or have a "fake" tooth put in its place. Her wisdom tooth should safely grow in and drift forward to take the missing tooth's place and it will be as if she didn't loose one. If it was the dentist's fault than he should pay for it if the above does not happen. It is hard to prove though. Did he give your daughter the tooth to keep.? If he did keep it so you can show it to whoever needs to see it. Good Luck!Health Question & Answer

If an "adult" tooth was removed, a new one will not grow to replace it. I would take her back to a dentist if it really worries you. I don't know if you need to worry about it just now though, since she's still young and her teeth are not "settled" yet. In the meantime, just keep up her dental hygiene - encourage her to floss her teeth every day. Health Question & Answer

If your dentist pulled an adult tooth (2nd) it will not grow back. How can your dentist make a horrible mistake like that when he has the x-ray there for viewing. I would speak to him directly and find out options. Good Luck!Health Question & Answer

nope, were not sharks. I would sue the dentist if in fact, he did remove the wrong tooth. Or at least hit him in the face with a bat so he lost some oh his own teeth.Health Question & Answer

it will not grow back, but he very well could have taken it out because she's growing and the dentist feels that her mouth will crowd. Health Question & Answer
