Child’s Skull Showing Both Baby and Adult Teeth

Child's skull with baby teeth and adult teeth, Hunterian Museum, London

Hunterian Museum at The Royal College of Surgeons of England in London has this fascinating medical specimen on display that shows what a child’s skull looks like when its adult teeth are waiting in the wings. It won’t be long before those deciduous (baby) teeth are booted out.
