temporary teeth
Deciduous dental set
Temporary teeth are the first set of teeth that emerge in infancy and fall out during childhood to make way for permanent teeth.
Also called baby teeth, milk teeth, or deciduous teeth.
Most children have twenty temporary teeth, which begin appearing around six months and are typically replaced between ages six and twelve.
