My baby was born with a tooth. Does it need to be pulled out?

Yes, you can get it removed. Here's why: - These kinds of teeth are called natal teeth. They usually develop in the lower gum where the central incisor usually appears. You may have observed that this tooth will also be quite wobbly. - The US National Library of Medicine states that this condition appears in one out of 2,000 to 3,000 children. - They are often a hindrance in nursing (for you). His tooth may have come in the way of breastfeeding and he may even bite his tongue. - You will also have to keep his tooth and gums clean almost after every time you nurse him. - He may have dental development problems in the future. Given these issues, it is a good idea to get this tooth removed.

Usually, no intervention is required UNLESS it is causing difficulty to the mother or infant. There is a possibility the permanent tooth buds may be extracted together with the natal tooth. It is also unsafe to extract natal teeth for infants with Hypoprothrombinemia. In case of complications where a natal tooth has to be removed, pediatric dentists should be consulted and a dental radiograph should be had as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neonatal_teeth

No. Some babies are born with milk teeth.
