What 𮮾 means
Its teething sense widened to name the childhood years.
The early Chinese character dictionary 說文解字, completed around 100 CE, defines 齔 through the change from baby teeth to adult teeth. Modern Chinese usually says 換牙 (Traditional) or 换牙 (Simplified) for teething.
Why might 𮮾 display as a box?
The chosen font may lack this supplementary Han glyph.
𮮾 lies beyond Unicode’s basic character range. A font without it may show a box. In 2026, Noto’s Chinese, Japanese and Korean fonts document all basic-range Han characters plus over 2,000 supplementary ones; that does not guarantee this glyph.

1Why does 𮮾 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
