Question:

My son is 10 and he just lost his second to last tooth on the bottom, Is he supposed to loose those teeth?


Answers:

i belive your talking about his lower molar?

If those are his baby teeth, which i believe they are because he's 10, yes. All his "baby teeth" have to fall out. Its completely normal. This way, his permanent teeth can errupt.

If he has already lost that tooth before, then no it shouldnt have fallen out.

If it is the second time it falls out then u should take a trip to the dentist. Its not healthy for the mouth to be missing a tooth or teeth because it will cause problems in the future with the rest of the teeth, such as crowding or jaw pain, depending where the missing teeth are.
