whats the average age for kids to start losing their baby teeth?(lighthearted)

[babyjane67]

Just that really!
my dd has just lost her first tooth yesterday at5yrs4months!

Ds1 is 5.9 and still has all his baby teeth. I think he's the only one in Yr1 who hasn't lost at least 1!

Ds is 5 and 8 months and hasn't lost any yet.

Dd1-6years 10 months
dd2, 6years 2 months
ds 6 years 5 months.

Same order as when their first tooth came through. Dd1 was in year 2 and was pretty much the last of her form (first day of year 2 I think) . Year 1 seemed typical, although I knew one lad who'd lost 4 teeth before he started school (wobbled out, not accident) and one little girl who was almost 8yo.

Thanks emski you give me hope. I will have sixty wobbly teeth to deal with in total

DD lost the front eight teeth between 6.6 and 7.7. She's now 9.2 and hasn't lost any more since. She has had braces to straighten the front four top ones.

I think I may hold the record! My resistant eater youngest didn't lose his first baby tooth until aged 10 and went to secondary school with gaps in his front teeth! Not eating anything obviously was good for his teeth if nothing else as aged 22 he has perfect teeth.
