Baby tooth and white hair?

okay. two of my friends are kind of unique. one of them is 15 and already has grey hair. i was wondering if stress caused it or just some condition? and my other friend who is 14 still has one baby tooth in his mouth. isnt it wierd for a teen still having baby teeth? yet he's healthy and normal and it just wont come out. any answers?

It's not uncommon for adults to still have baby teeth. It could be possible that your friend is just late and will be losing this tooth soon. Otherwise, they might have it for a while.



As for the grey hair, I started going grey when I was 12. It's heredity for me on my dad's side of the family. I have cousins with the same problem and an aunt who's had grey hair for as long as anyone can remember. Stress could probably play a factor as well, but it's likely in the genes.

No my nephew , had a baby tooth that took a while to come out. The dentist wanted to pull it, but he said it would be fine for it to come out on his own. His dentist would advise him best. As for Grey hairs, I remember pulling one out from my daughter that was 2 years old. Its genetics.

Hi i had a couple of baby teeth when i was 18 and they pulled them out to let the other tooth come through and they did, i wouldn't worry, there's plenty of time.



Sorry don't know about going grey at the age of 15 but i know stress can cause it. Theres alwas hair dye.

normally the adulti teeth is completed at the age of 12 years.



let me explain what is going on with your friend.



the baby teeth is being changed because the adulti teeth is pushing them out of the oral cavity , they are formed in the maxilar bone and at the age of 6 years they begin to push the baby teeth so the baby teeth get down.sometimes when there's no adult tooth behind the baby tooth (an anormal case) the baby tooth can resist in it place much longer because there's nothing to push it down.anyway it will get down someday and then it can be replaced.

It is not all that unusual. Baby teeth that didn't erupt and are causing no effect will most likely not be a problem but if partial eruption, decay or pressure are an issue they would most likely be extracted. I still have one in my lower front, and it has never been noticed it will most likely be below my teeth forever.

I work at a dentist and the oldest person that we extracted a baby tooth on was 47 years old but her permanent tooth under it never developed. We have extracted baby teeth from kids in their late teens with slow developing permanent teeth -- you usually lose all of your baby teeth by 12-14 years old
