Baby teeth -> Adult Teeth

I've noticed my 4.5 month old puppy has nice white adult front teeth, but his K9s and molars are still puppy.

My question is (I know i'm putting too much thought into this) his general face is still quite small, compared to what I expect it to be when full grown. How will his jaw accommodate all the adult teeth if his face is still small? will they be tightly spaced, and just slowly gap out as his face grows, or will they come in slow enough that it will just work out.

I know it'll all work out fine, I've just never sat down and thought about it before, and now I've gone and confused myself.

He will continue to grow...head jaw and all! My 15 month old EM hasn't grown much in the last month but his head is noticeably larger recently...just be patient :)
