At what age do children's teeth fall out?!


Question: my son will be 8 soon he has not lost any teeth


Answers: my son will be 8 soon he has not lost any teeth

most children begin to lose teeth at about age 6. what causes a child to lose teeth is the permanent teeth growing under them put pressure on the baby teeth and cause them to get loose. it is a small possibility that he does not have permanent teeth to replace the baby teeth so the baby teeth are not getting loose, or his permanent teeth are growing a little out of place and not putting pressure on the baby teeth. i would take him to a dentist and they will take a panorex x ray to make sure he has all of his permanent teeth. he is probably just a late developer so i would not be too concerned yet. the first teeth he should lose will be his 2 front teeth on the bottom (not top).

he will soon then as my daughter lost hers between 5 and 8

you can't be hitting him hard enough

My eldest son is almost 12 and still has a good few baby teeth his brother nearly 10 has only lost his 8 front baby teeth their teeth are in good condition not a filling in sight i think they fall out when the adult teeth is ready to come through,my kids started to loose baby teeth around about 8 and I'm just over 40 and still have one baby tooth

,You haven't feed him enough sugar, you cruel mother

Usually it's at about 7 years old. If your son's teeth have not fall yet, it's not serious. It will fall down anyway. Maybe because they are still strong. Did you give him a lot of fluor?

my son is nearly 7 and he lost3 in the past week.

usually six or seven

age 6 and up' the first teeth you'll see to fall out is the central incisors... the two big teeth in front. take him to the dentist and have the teeth needed to be pulled because if not, your child's permanent teeth might grow out of place and will need serious dental health care

let your child drink vitamin a,c,d for stronger teeth afterwards

There is some variation in the age that the first teeth exfoliate (fall out). Usually from 5-8 with boys (esp caucasian) at the later age. As usual, my advice to people is to ask their dentist or consult with a pediatric dentist to make sure that the adult teeth are present and see what is causing the delay. Also, sometimes the lower front teeth erupt behind the baby teeth so it might look like he has a double row of teeth on his lower jaw.

the teeth usually start falling at the age of six year's some time due to malpositioning of successors,any factor that is resulting in lack of resorption of roots of deciduous teeth and many other factors.better to consult dentist to avoid from orthodontic problem.

My son just lost his two bottom front teeth and he is 5-1/2. I think it varies greatly though. He has friends who have lost some before him and many who have no loose teeth at all.

I lost my first tooth when I was nine! I am like sixteen yrs old and I still have 2 baby teeth! well thats a different story since I have no permanent teeth under them! They never have, are. or will develp! (implant soon). But I doubt thats hat will happen, its in my family's genes. They will soon! Good Luck!
