It is not uncommon for children to have peg-shaped teeth, especially in the front teeth area. Peg-shaped teeth are typically smaller and more pointed in shape compared to regular teeth. This condition can be due to genetics, and it is often nothing to worry about. If you are concerned about your toddler's peg-shaped teeth, it is advisable to consult with a pediatric dentist. They can assess the situation and provide you with specific guidance based on your child's dental health. In the meantime, maintaining good oral hygiene is essential. Encourage your toddler to brush their teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste and to visit the dentist regularly for check-ups. If you have any further concerns or questions about your child's dental health, it is best to seek professional advice from a qualified dentist. https://invl.io/cll6she
