Dogs have 28 Deciduous "Baby" teeth and 42 Permanent teeth. Adult teeth shouldn't fall out. It just like humans if one of your teeth feel out there was a lot of disease invovled with that tooth and is really painful. Its the same for dogs, dental disease can be very painful. Regular trips to your vet and keeping up with keeping your dogs teeth can make your dog much healthier and happier. There are many new products to help prevent peridontal disease.

if they are not properly cared for, dogs can lose their teeth permanently just like people. one of the biggest "silent" killers of dogs is gum disease. the teeth don't get cleaned and eventually the gums become infected and start pulling away from the teeth. the bacteria can get into the bloodstream and make the dog sick. some dogs have to have all of their teeth or some pulled.
talk to you vet about a dental regimen for your dog. sometimes they do have to have teeth cleanings (the dog is put under anesthesia) and the teeth are cleaned like at the dentist. you can also brush your dogs teeth and use dental chews at home.

Yes. They lose their teeth when they are puppies and when they get older they can lose them as well if their teeth and gums are not healthy. Too much canned dog food can cause tooth decay and tartar buildup which can also lead to other health problems.

Like people too, dogs can loose their teeth with age or gum disease. They can also crack and break them if they bite down on something too hard, like bones. (Another good reason to not give your dog real bones to chew on.)
