Worried about adult tooth coming through

Just wondering if anyone has experienced this, baby tooth is very wobbly, has been for a few weeks and has totally moved to the side, whilst adult tooth is growing out behind it at an angle!!!!

Is this normal? First wobbly tooth and I am panicking that the adult teeth are coming in all wonky... wondering if I need to make a dentist appt.

It's quite common to get 'shark teeth'. The baby tooth will eventually come out and the adult tooth will probably move into the space by itself

It's quite normal. I could see my daughter's front bottom adult tooth in a similar position before the baby one fell out. It moved into the correct position pretty quickly.

Ok thanks, I was getting worried, it does look very far back and wonky... and worrying about future orthodontic prices!

Just wondering how the tooth panned out? My daughter experienced this and baby tooth came out but seeming tooth still wonky/no room to fit in

Sorry, only just seen this! The tooth came out about a week later, and the one next to it a few days later (busy and expensive time for the tooth fairy!).

Her two adult teeth have grown through very quickly and have moved forward a bit, although still a bit wonky, hoping when the next ones come out there will be more space and they will straighten out!
