Permanant tooth in 5 year old?

[Mildez]

My 4.5year old (born April 07) lost her first tooth a few weeks ago and has a permenant tooth growing in its place. My eldest was 5.5 so my 2nd is much younger. I just assume she is an early teether. Her baby tooth did fall out or was pushed out by the new one coming up

totally normal!

Totally normal - DD1 lost her bottom 2 at 5y and they came up behind the baby teeth which eventually fell out.

Thanks everyone! It is just the definate gap between the front teeth and the new tooth that bothered me the most but I guess it will come forward as there is more room when the baby teeth fall out. I did find later that her two front teeth are wobbly - one more than the other!

adult teeth come through when they want and where they want! they will push the baby teeth out, the only thing holding thos wobbly teeth in are the gums, the roots have been absorbed
