∙ 11y agoThere are no premolars (bicuspids) among deciduous teeth. There are 8 incisors, 4 canines, and 8 molars.
The child's first set of 20 teeth are deciduous or "milk" teeth, designed to last at least 6 to 9 years until they are displaced by the permanent teeth. The premolars (bicuspids) replace the baby molars, and the permanent first, second, and third molars complete the normal set of 32 adult teeth.
The 3rd molars (wisdom teeth) erupt separately from the deciduous or permanent sets, generally between the age of 15 and 21.
