Solution

The correct option is C Permanent teeth
Human teeth have two sets of teeth during their life i.e, one temporary set of milk and one permanent set. The temporary teeth or milk teeth are replaced by permanent teeth upon the age of 12 years. So the teeth present after 12 years of age is called permanent teeth.
So the correct answer is 'Permanent teeth'.
