Not really but...: Mostly a common occurrence when kids start losing teeth. But if there are concerns, I would see a dentist which may provide your son more comfort, and possibly help you feel better too.

Loose baby tooth: it is normal for kids to play with their loose baby teeth and this will not cause any harm. The tooth should come out soon. Don't worry about this. But have him checked by a dentist if you are concerned and want some peace of mind.
