My dd (5) has got her first wobbly tooth. It's the front left tooth on the bottom. I've just had a look in her mouth because she said something hurts and I can see what looks like an adult tooth coming through, but instead of comming through on the left side (where the gap will be when the wobbly tooth falls out) it is coming through on the right side, behind the baby teeth that are still in situ. This seems a bit weird to me. Or is is normal?

Will the big tooth move into place when the baby teeth fall out or is this the start of lots of very expensive trips to the orthodontist? Or am I getting my knicks in a twist for nothing?

They usually sort themselves out as the baby teetha re displaced. Could be that the right hand one will fall out very soon.
