What age your child lost their first tooth ?

Question

HI :)
My 4-almost 5-year old lost his first tooth ( bottom central incisor ) this morning and when I felt around, the one beside it is very loose also . I called the dentist and apparently it's normal considering he has amazing oral hygiene, and his last x-rays were clear . My question is if anyone else's child lost their first tooth/teeth before the given age of 6 . I was stunned and a bit grossed out ( God's idea of a funny - give the woman with the weakest stomach two boys :P ) but they had gotten gapped quite a bit over the past while so I should have known :P
Anyways, leave me your stories :D

My son is 5 and just loss 2 teeth within the last 3 weeks. He also has 2 loose ones. I think it just depends on the child. I would defenitely get them brushing their teeth though. Getting cavities filled for a 5 year old can be pretty hard.

My daughter was 5 and a half and my son is just over that now, with three wobblers.  Perfectly normal.  But I would say that x-raying a child's milk teeth is NOT normal at all!
