Well, it depends on each child. Some children I know, loose their teeth at age 4 or 5 years old. Certain children can lose their children very late. Even at age 8 or 9. But it's completely normal if your child looses her teeth early or late. You don't have to worry.

The link below has an image showing which tooth usually comes in and age the tooth us typically lost.
According to the chart, the front bottom teeth (central incisors) are usually the first to come out. It's listed as 6 yrs, but I'm sure it's just an average. Some children probably lose it sooner while others lose it later.
Call your dentist if you're really worried, but if you don't see any trauma it's probably meant to be.

My daughter lost her first tooth when she was 5 & my son is 6 (just turned 6) and he hasnt lost his first one YET!. Ive heard that the longer they stay in there the healthier the teeth will be Or if they stay in for a long time...the teeth are stronger. I dont know. I dont really think it matters. I am wondering when my son is going to lose his first

My son is 6 almost 7 and lost his first tooth last month and has another one that has been loose right beside it. His bottom 2 front teeth. I guess it depends on genetics maybe?

I had most of my big teeth by 5. I looked ridiculous too! LOL Only one had to be pulled by the dentist because I had fallen down and hit that tooth. It was very loose but wouldn't fall out. Generally you don't need to take children to the dentist to have the teeth pulled though.

my son lost his first two teeth when he was about 51/2 years old. I worked in a preschool and had a child lose their tooth at 4 years old. It's not uncommon.

Nope thats the time, around 5-6 usually, one by one, and sometimes all of them,
But don't worry worse case scenario, it'll grow back when its ready, it takes time sometimes, so don't worry.
