About three years ago, I started answering questions related to dentistry in Yahoo Answers. Many of the questions are posted by children to chat among their piers, but occasionally I see questions that deserve an answer and I try to help with mine.
Here is the answer to a question that I recently responded to from a twenty seven year old young man who is about to loose a retained baby tooth in the smile area, does not know if the permanent tooth will come in and is wondering what can be done.
Below is the answer to this young man’s question:
