Aside from protecting the sofa legs from your furry pal\u2019s incessant chewing, there\u2019s not a whole lot to do while your new pet is going through this process. Knowing the details of teething is a good idea, though. That way, you know what little Fido is going through and when, and you can let your vet know right away if something seems amiss.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<h2> <span style=\"\"> <br \/> Newborn Puppies <\/span> <\/h2>\n<p> <span> Just like human babies, puppies are born with no teeth. They simply don\u2019t need them at this stage, after all\u2014your puppy will nurse from their mother if they can. Puppies need to be hand-fed from a bottle if the mother isn\u2019t available.&nbsp; <\/span> <\/p>\n<h2> <span style=\"\"> <br \/> 2-3 Weeks of Age <\/span> <\/h2>\n<p> <span> Around two or three weeks of age, your puppy\u2019s first baby teeth will start coming through their gums. The smaller front teeth, called the incisors, are usually the first ones to appear. The canine teeth will follow\u2014these are the four long fangs. Your puppy\u2019s premolars will be the last to appear. These come in behind the canines near the back of the mouth. When it\u2019s all said and done, your puppy will have 28 baby teeth, which are known medically as the deciduous teeth and are often referred to as \u201cmilk teeth.\u201d&nbsp; <\/span> <\/p>\n<h2> <span style=\"\"> <br \/> 6 Weeks of Age <\/span> <\/h2>\n<p> <span> By the time your canine buddy is about six weeks old, all 28 baby teeth will probably have come in. Around this time, little Fido will be in the process of getting weaned off of the mother\u2019s milk or formula, and will begin eating solid puppy food.&nbsp; <\/span> <\/p>\n<h2> <span style=\"\"> <br \/> 3-4 Months of Age <\/span> <\/h2>\n<p> <span> Around <\/span> the 12- to 16-week mark, your pet\u2019s baby teeth will start falling out. The adult teeth come in and simply push the deciduous teeth out of the way. During this stage, you may occasionally see a baby tooth on the floor or by little Fido\u2019s water or food bowls. Most often, though, puppies simply swallow the baby teeth as they come out, which is perfectly normal.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<h2> <span style=\"\"> <br \/> 6 Months and Older <\/span> <\/h2>\n<p> <span> By the time your dog is about six months old, all 28 baby teeth will likely be gone, replaced by 42 adult teeth. Your canine companion will now have all his molars, as well as his premolars, which are the largest teeth at the back of the mouth that help with chewing and mashing food.&nbsp; <\/span> <\/p>\n<p> <span> <br \/> Do you have questions about your puppy\u2019s teething?
