My dd2 lost her first tooth when she was 4, I was quite shocked but it was a perfectly healthy tooth when I checked it so it must have just been time, she has several more Wobblies now

DDs best mate starting losing hers at 5
[DD was v v v v

Hers of course were a few years later.

Best find out the going rate - here it is £2 for the first tooth then £1 thereafter!! But these are London prices

Here (and I mean our house!) its £1 for first and 50p after. Mean old Scots!

DS2 is 5 and has already lost 2 teeth with another one wobbly.

Tooth fairy brings £1 in this house, in my day it was about 10p!

Dd's first wobbly tooth was one month after her 5th birthday. The going rate depends on what change we have at the time. I think she got 5 euros for the first one.

DS lost his first tooth a couple of months before he was 6. Has now lost 4 and looks nice and gappy .

A fair few children in DD's class lost teeth in reception (aged 4-5 years). DD was upset as she was the only one, by end of Y1, not to have lost a tooth. She didnt til she wa s7y and had finished Y2.

I work in a y1 class and many of the children have lost at leats one tooth.

very normal, mine lost 2 at 4 years old, 2 at just 5 and expecting the next 4 to drop out any time soon, she's 6 in June...

Going rate is £1 here, although first one was when holidaying in Florida and the tooth fairy only had $5 as smallest denomination.
