A member asked:
My 5 & half year old, her tooth is shaking and when i checked her teeth i noticed there's another tooth growing inside (behind) the one shaking is it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Loose teeth are: Normal in a 5 year old. I suspect it's the lower front tooth. The baby tooth is exfoliating to allow the permanent tooth to erupt. The other tooth growing in is the normal pattern. Sounds normal to me, but have your dentist comment on this at your child's next checkup or sooner if it will relieve any concern. Good luck!
