Fun Fact: Tenille has worked for Dr. Dollinger several times in her career as her family moved to and from the area.

This time Tenille is at her 4 year work anniversary. We like to refer to her as our resident therapist. You will often find team members and patients pouring their hearts out to Tenille. She is such a great listener and has great compassion and empathy toward others.

Thank you Tenille for all you do for Upwards Dental and those around you! We appreciate you! 💛

Most babies start getting their first teeth around 6 months of age, and by about 2½–3 years, the full set of 20 primary (baby) teeth is usually present.

Here is the typical timeline of baby tooth eruption:

• Lower central incisors – usually appear first, around 6–10 months
• Upper central incisors – erupt around 8–12 months
• Upper lateral incisors – appear around 9–13 months
• Lower lateral incisors – erupt between 10–16 months

• Upper first molars – usually come in around 13–19 months
• Lower first molars – erupt around 14–18 months

• Upper canines (cuspids) – appear between 16–22 months
• Lower canines – erupt between 17–23 months

• Lower second molars – usually appear between 23–31 months
• Upper second molars – the last to erupt, around 25–33 months

Every child develops at a slightly different pace, so a variation of a few months is usually normal.

By the end of this process, most children have their complete set of 20 baby teeth, which play an important role in chewing, speech development, and guiding permanent teeth into the correct position.

We’re celebrating seven amazing years of Blanca being an incredible part of the Upwards Dental family 💙

Blanca brings so much joy to our office every single day. She’s funny, kind, caring, compassionate, and deeply empathetic—the kind of person who makes everyone around her feel seen and supported. She consistently goes above and beyond, works incredibly hard, and does it all with a smile and a great sense of humor.
