My teeth haven't grown in and its been about 5 months since I lost them.
I am 15, and I was supposed to lose these when I was 11.
I am freaking out!
Is there any possible way that I can like make them grow in?
I have never had this problem before.

You can't make teeth grow in. They will do that when they are ready.

When was your last visit to the dentist? You may need some x-rays to determine how much longer it will be.

Well, I am 16 years old and have the same problem. But to me, it's my right upper canine tooth which is not erupting by itself...

What my dentist did, was to just cut up my gums, so that the tooth was exposed. He removed a little gum and I bled a lot in the dentist chair :p But to be honest, the procedure was not so bad as it sounds! :D

I am wearing headgear now, and if the tooth does not come down by it self before July, I am going to wear real braces... Hope not :eek:

Well... I AM scared of braces! Had a nightmare about braces, too. I really don't want to wear braces! But rather braces than being without the tooth :D

Headgear is no problem, by the way:)
