Unicode Version 17.0

U+9F80 "龀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means "to shed teeth" or "to lose baby teeth," specifically referring to the process of a child's deciduous teeth falling out and being replaced by permanent teeth. It is composed of the radical 齿 (tooth) and the phonetic component 匕, and is traditionally pronounced as "chèn" in Mandarin. This character appears in classical Chinese texts and is used in the context of childhood development, often in medical or physiological descriptions. As part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, it represents a standard written form shared across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean scripts, though its usage is relatively rare in modern everyday language.
