What 𮯃 means
𮯃 is an extended Japanese form of 齠, tied to changing teeth.
Mandarin reads 齠 as tiáo. Texts from the Jin era, a Chinese dynasty, use 齠 for young children and their forelocks; a Chinese rhyme dictionary defines it through tooth loss. Japanese reads 齠 as chō, and 𮯃 is an extended written form.
