My daughters canine tooth took over the spot of her left lateral incisor, she's 2, what should I do about it?

Are you certain it is her incisor? Sometimes pedo laterals can be pointy when they first erupt. If it isn't the lateral, then this could indicate a seriosly narrow palate. There are things that can be done to expand it without surgery as long as this is done at a fairly early age. The best thing to do is take her to a Pedodontist, where they can obtain x-rays and make an assessmant from there.





good luck.

I recommend asking her dentist. Usually, this is not of consequence at this time.
