When Will My Child Get His/Her First Tooth?

On average, the first baby tooth comes in at 6 months of age; this is usually a lower front tooth.
There are 20 baby teeth all together. The last baby teeth usually come in between age 2-2 ½ years.
Permanent teeth usually begin to come in around age 6. This may start with the 6-year molars.
The first “wiggly” baby tooth is usually a lower front tooth and should become loose around the same time as the permanent 6-year molars are erupting.
The remaining permanent teeth (except for wisdom teeth) come in between ages 6-13, keeping the tooth fairy very busy!
