Maybe everyone else knows the answer to this......

....dd has just lost her first baby tooth. How many more will she lose?

Haven't got children that age, but don't you lose them all? Ahem, baby teeth?

I know they have 20 teeth at this age. I would expect her to lose them all.

Are you trying to work out how much the tooth fairy should bring?

Well, I guess it would make sense that they'd lose them all but I certainly don't remember losing that many teeth as a child. I must have a faulty memory - or maybe once the tooth fairy novelty wore off I simply didn't bother to store the occasions in my long term memory!!

goods point earlybird, I don't really remember losing many teeth at all.
your probably right, after the excitement of the first one or two, it probably became boring

They should lose all 20.
The tooth fairy in this house forgot to come by the second tooth lost The dds no lo ger believe. Do I still have to pay for teeth?

I had no less than 12 of my baby teeth extracted by the dentist over a year. They decided I had overcrowding and that extracting baby teeth would help with the adult teeth not being over crowded - WRONG! Still needed a brace for 4 years
DS' dentist told me that now dentists try and avoid extraction of baby teeth at all costs because they have found that it makes overcrowding WORSE in adult teeth
