>Is it common for children with CD to shed teeth at this age?
Thank you all!
I got 12 responses to my question.
Most of you (6) told me that if he got his first tooth early, he would
loose it early, CD or not.
(He did'nt get his teeth early)
Not caused by CD (2).
Coeliac shed teeth late (1).
Positive connection between CD and early shedding (1).
Probably connection between CD ans early shedding (1).
And finally one person have the same worries as I have.
It seems to me that CD may be causing severe problems to teeth, and this
problem may very well be one of them. Others being low calsium density, and
weak teeth. But having CD don't mean it has to be that way.
One person mentioned hypophosphatasia, which occurred within the family.
I will definitely investigate this further. The boy of soon 4 has a
'bone-age' of 2 according to the pediatriatitan. Whatever that actually mean.
