Losing baby teeth: What to expect and when
"My tooth is loose!"
Those words represent a big milestone in your child's life.
What age do you lose teeth chart?
Baby teeth have to fall out to make way for permanent teeth to grow – a process that continues until the final molars (also called wisdom teeth) are in. This can take until your child is anywhere from age 17 to 21.

Most kids are excited to feel a tooth wiggle (and perhaps get a visit from the tooth fairy), while some worry it will hurt when the tooth falls out.
If your child is a worrier, you can reassure him that he probably won't feel anything.
First in, first out
A child's 20 baby teeth, which often come in by age 3, usually fall out in the same order they came in.
That means the lower center teeth (lower center incisors) are usually the first to go, around age 6 or 7. The top center pair is next.
A baby tooth typically doesn't loosen until the permanent tooth below pushes it up to take its place.
But it is possible for kids to lose a baby tooth before the permanent tooth is ready
