My daughter's front tooth is loose but I seem to recall this same tooth already coming out. Just curious but how sets of baby teeth does a child have and will they eventually lose all of their baby teeth?

They have just one set that can be up to 20 teeth depending on whether all of their molars erupt. Usually all are lost but occasionally one or more remain

Usually humans only have one set of baby teeth, then their adult teeth. There are very rare instances when a child may have a second baby tooth, I had one. I would take her to a dentist though if you believe that she has lost that tooth already.

Normally people have one set of "baby teeth", but there have been rare instances where children have two sets of baby teeth.
Your child is at an age where dental visits and cleanings would be beneficial. The dentist can and will take X-Rays of your childs teeth and at that point you'll know FOR SURE what's going on in your kiddo's mouth.
Good luck!

Only 1 set of baby teeth, and they will all eventually fall out. If you think she already lost this one, you should take her to the dentist to make sure there is nothing wrong with her permanent teeth. If she has ever been to the dentist, they might actually have a record of which ones she actually already lost, so try giving them a call.

There is only one set of baby teeth and one set of adult teeth. She should go see a dentist if her front tooth is loose.

Yes, they eventually lose all their baby teeth, but it can take them up to 10 years old to do so. As far as baby teeth - I believe they have two sets. First is 'baby' and second is '?' Ask your dentist to be sure.
