This timeline illustrates when the deciduous and permanent teeth erupt in cats and dogs. The deciduous teeth typically erupt around 21 days of age and are fully erupted by five or six weeks. The permanent teeth, then, erupt to replace the deciduous teeth around four months and are completely erupted by six months.
