I recently saw one of those x-rays of a toddler’s jaw showing all the adult teeth waiting to come in and it got me thinking: when those teeth do come in and free up that space, what takes its place? Does new bone matter fill in the gaps? How long does it take? Can the jaw be injured more easily as those gaps fill in?
In: Biology
Yeah they grow as the other tooth pushes out. And yeah their is some gaps but it helps keep your head light same what your sinuses do.
