Primary teeth are smaller and look whiter than permanent teeth because they have thinner enamel. Their roots are also shorter and thinner. Primary teeth are usually just 20, while there are 32 permanent adult teeth. Permanent teeth will start to appear when a child is around six years old, and the jaw is large enough.
