as with all other dogs, yorkies have two sets of teeth in their life. the first set of teeth is the 28-piece deciduous teeth (often referred to as "milk teeth", "baby teeth" or "puppy teeth"). the second set is the 42-piece permanent or adult teeth. sometimes the number of permanent or adult teeth may vary, which is fine as long as they do not cause bad bite. when puppies are born, they have no teeth because milk is the only food they need. the deciduous teeth will grow from the age of 3 to 8 weeks old, in the order of incisors, canine/ fangs and premolars. yorkie puppies have no molar teeth. yorkie puppies will start to lose their deciduous or baby teeth when the permanent or adult teeth come in. the permanent or adult grow when the yorkie puppies are 4 to 8 months old. by around 8 months old, those teeth should fully develop. the permanent or adult teeth will grow in the order of incisors, canine/fangs, premolars and molars. molar teeth will develop at around 6 to 8 months old.
