How old were you when you lost your first tooth?

too young to remember it, I do know I made some money that night, and that is all that really matters.

I got them when I was 27. People get them at all ages. How long you have them will depend on how much your teeth need to be moved.

That's a great question. I had braces for 2 years (age 12 -14) to correct slight crowding at the back and side of my mouth...you couldn't even see them. I wish I would have left them alone, and not worried about it. Braces do mess with your enamel, and sometimes the coloration of your teeth will differ after their removal. This is on an individual basis, and some people aren't affected. I have since had veneers put on my teeth to correct the thinned enamel, and color differences that were there.

My daughter went 4 months without any sign of two front teeth coming in.  I think her father pulled them before they were completely ready to come in.  It was around christmas time so my daughter who was 6 at the time had to keep hearing from people was  "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth" :)  Anyways, they did eventually come in.  My dentist had done a panaramic xray when she first started going there and he saw all the adult teeth in the gum.  Having said that, I still have 2 baby teeth in my mouth (im 28) with no adult teeth under them.  My dentist is getting ready to pull them to make room for my wisdon teeth.... Either way the dentist will be able answer all your questions.  Take Care.

I had braces when I was a teenager. I am now 44, and my teeth have gone back to being more crooked over the years. I asked my dentist why, and he said they used to think 6 months to a year would be adequate, but have found that teeth will generally tend to go back to how they were unless you keep up the retainer. \n\nNow I wish I had worn it for many years, even at night or just a couple times a week. I feel like I should get braces again. Hindsight is 20/20...

the adult human mouth is supposed to have 32 teeth. 12 of them are molars which include the wisdom teeth or the third molars. now if you are in between- and have both 'baby' teeth and adult teeth- it gets complicated but for sure you'd be too young for the 3rd molars to be showing up

Just a few weeks ago I had the remaining 2 molars in my mouth pulled out. When I was 17 years old I had my first root canal. The years proceeding I had 5 more. Let me just say that the next 10 years of my life was a nightmare. I was in pain every day. My face hurt, my joints hurt, I just didn't feel right. I saw multiple dentists and specialists who wanted to put me on narcotics. I finally found a dentist that would help me. He said that because I had been in pain for so many years that the best thing would be to remove them. Every single tooth that had a root canal done on it had infection and was decayed on the inside. None of this could be seen on any x-ray we looked at. My destist said "No wonder you don't feel good, you have been living with a pretty big infection in your face, for what looks like years." I am now 29 and I have no molars left in my mouth and I can easily say that I have spent a small fortune on dental work. I can also honestly say that I have not felt this good in 10 years. There has to be some truth to what you are saying. The day after I had my last infected molar pulled was the first day in about 5 years that I didn't have a headache. I didn't even need to take any pain medicine because I felt soooo much better. So obviously there has to be some connection there. My new dentist says that at dental school they are really teaching about implants now and that hopefully soon more dentists will go back for continuing education and learn about them. I am curious to see what others have to say about this. Good question.

Children should visit a dentist for the first time within 6 months of the eruption of the first primary tooth, and no later than age 12 months. The goals of the visit are to assess risk for tooth decay, provide anticipatory guidance, respond to questions parents may have about oral health and development, initiate prevention practices, and schedule the next visit. During a child’s early visits to the dentist, the dentist and dental hygienist can also assess tooth and jaw development and check for problems. By taking their child to the dentist early, parents learn how to care for their child’s teeth. Children, in turn, learn the importance of good oral health care and view visiting the dentist as a positive experience.

I'm a genetic anomoly.  I've lost particular teeth two and three times and had hem grow back.  I had some extra teeth.  Even now, at the age of 28 and with all my adult teeth fully surfaced, I have seen in my X-rays a nascent incissor in my skull--and that's a tooth I've lost twice already.\n\nNormal people only get to lose their baby teeth once, but freaks like me have extra sets of teeth.

I did, when I was about eight or nine.\nIt's not painful at all.\nI lost it once, and i kept grinding my teeth right through it.\nBut there was no real problems.\nJust make sure you don't put it in right after you eat, ew!

I think it was common for kids to have fillings 30 years ago, but now it's not as common because of fluoride in the water etc. I'd say it would be relatively normal for 8 year olds to have a filling or two, but 6 sounds like quite a lot, maybe you should watch what she's eating and how she's brushing her teeth, and maybe speak to the dentist about sealants?

At 5-6 years of age you will notice the 2 bottom front teeth pop through called the permanant mandibular central incisors and the 6yr molars also called the permanent first molars which erupt in all four quadrants of a child's mouth (upper right, lower right, etc.) behind the last baby tooth in each quadrant called a 2nd year molar or a deciduous 2nd molar.  Get sealants on the permanent molars as they erupt if no decay is present. \nCheck this website out:  http://www.sdcoe.k12.ca.us/smiles/fallout.pdf\nhttp://www.umanitoba.ca/outreach/wisdomtooth/tooth.htm

Yes that's not uncommon especially thirty or more years ago for people to have had dentures so young.  Even today there are some genetic diseases that makes the teeth very fragile so they need to be taken out at a young age.  Nowdays dental implants can replace the teeth on someone like that.

Primary teeth erupting varies from child to child just like taking first steps varies.  Generally the first teeth to erupt are the lower central incisors at around 6 - 10 months of age.  The remaining primary teeth should all erupt by the age of 2 1/2 - 3.
