Newborn infant with a natal tooth

Newborn infant with a natal tooth
Teeth that are present in the oral cavity at the time of birth are natal teeth; those that erupt during the neonatal period are neonatal teeth. Although this newborn has an upper incisor, the majority of natal teeth are the primary mandibular incisors.
