Kids start loosing teeth between 5 and 7 years old.

Seems fine, I started losing mine around 6.5 or 7, though, because I got my teeth late. I would think that while it's more uncommon, anything around 5-7 is considered normal. My sister's front teeth actually got loose when she was 4 because she was playing tug-of-war and she put the rope in her mouth because her hands were hurting. The other person let go, and she lost her 2 front teeth within 6 months of that.

It's OK. Iv'e worked with kids in kindergarten And many of them loose their teeth around 5 or 6. Don't worry.

my son had an enamel problem too and had his front four top teeth removed at age 3. he started losing his other teeth naturally at about five too. he seems to have slowed down now and his friends are catching up. he is 7 and a half now and has about 8 adult teeth so far.

She is probably a little different based on the problems you mentioned, but even kids without problems can lose teeth at that age. They say that the earlier they grew their first teeth, the earlier they fall out. I had seen lots of kids in my children's kindergarten class with teeth missing.

She is fine. Many kids begin losing their milk teeth at 5, some don't until much later. As long as her new tteth are growing in fine, there is nothing to worry about!

I lost my first tooth around 4 years old. I'm also a Kindergarten teacher, and many of my students lose their teeth before or during Kindergarten. If your doctor isn't concerned I wouldn't be either.

i just took my 5 year old to her pediatrician and she told me her teeth could start falling out any time now, i thought it was a bit early and my daughters teeth show no sign of coming loose but it must be a normal thing !
