- The process of a developing tooth moving from the bony crypt and appearing in the oral cavity is called eruption.
- Deciduous teeth begin calcification at birth.
- All deciduous teeth are typically present by age 2.5.
- Dental age is used to estimate a person's age based on the chronology of teeth and the anatomy of the mandible.
- The eruption of developing teeth typically occurs between 6 months and 2.5 years of age.
