- 12-15 months
- 5 months iu
- 6 months
Tooth C eruption, calcification beginning and enamel completion dates
- 18-20 months
- 5 months iu

What sequence do the teeth of the mandibular arch erupt in?
Mandibular arch
- 1st molar
- central incisor
- lateral incisor
- canine
- 1st premolar
- 2nd premolar
- 2nd molar
What sequence do the teeth of the maxillary arch erupt in?
Maxillary arch
- 1st molar
- central incisor
- lateral incisor
- 1st premolar
- 2nd premolar
- canine (long distance to travel)
- 2nd molar
Eruption dates of the teeth of the mandibular arch
6-7: first molar 6-7: central incisor 7-8: lateral incisor 9-10: canine 10-12: 1st premolar 11-12: 2nd premolar 11-13: second molar 17-21: third molar
Eruption dates of the teeth of the maxillary arch
6-7: first molar 7-8: central incisor 8-9: lateral incisor 10-11: 1st premolar 10-12: 2nd premolar 11-12: canine 12-13: 2nd molar 17-21: 3rd molar
Are these eruption dates completely accurate?
No they are approximate, give or take 6 months.
Teeth also tend to erupt sooner in girls than boys.
Dates of calcification beginning in permanent dentition
Calcification date =
crown eruption date minus 6/7 years
Dates of crown completion (enamel completion) in permanent dentition
Crown completion date = crown eruption date minus 3/4 years
Root development in decidous teeth
Roots complete 12 months after eruption
