When Do Teeth Fall out in Puppies?

At around 12 weeks, the deciduous teeth begin to fall out, and the permanent teeth begin to erupt. Normally by 6 months of age, all permanent teeth have erupted, and all deciduous teeth have fallen out.

How long does the puppy chewing stage last?

Much like human infants, puppies go through a stage when they lose their baby teeth and experience pain as their adult teeth come in. This intensified chewing phase usually ends by six months of age.

When is puppy teething at its worst?

When a puppy is about 3-to-4-months-old, puppy teeth begin to fall out to make room for 42 adult teeth. (That's about 10 more teeth than people have.) This process can be awfully painful for your pup — his gums will be sore.
