What is Understanding Deciduous Tooth Shedding about?
Shedding, or exfoliation, is a normal process where deciduous teeth are replaced by permanent successors, primarily driven by root resorption influenced by the pressure from erupting permanent teeth. Odontoclasts, the cells responsible for resorbing dental hard tissues, play a crucial role in this process, functioning similarly to osteoclasts in bone resorption. Various factors such as the pressure from erupting teeth and increased mastication forces contribute to the resorption and shedding of teeth.
