Last night my 5 mth old kitten lost her first kitten tooth.Is this not too soon? When do they start losing their kitten teeth?
When do kittens start losing their kitten teeth?
They usually start to lose baby teeth when about four to five months old. Adult teeth should all be in by the time she is eight months.
Reply:I had a kitten once, and I don't ever remembering her loosing her teeth.
Reply:Nope, my kitten started losing her teeth when she was around 5 months too, so its normal.
Reply:They begin to lose their baby teeth around 4 months of age, but you won't even know it's happening. As quickly as the baby tooth falls out, it is immediately replaced by an adult tooth.
Best Wishes
Reply:My kitten lost her first baby tooth when she was 4 mos. old. Didn't seem to bother her at all.

Reply:I don't know if there is a defined phobia of losing teeth, but "Dentophobia" is a fear of a dentist
Reply:I thought I was the only person who was afraid of this! all I know is Odontophobia is fear of teeth. I am not sure theres enough people who fear losing their teeth to have be a named phobia.
Reply:I would like to know the answer to that too. Sometimes I have dreams that all my teeth are falling out. The first thing that I do when I wake up...is check that they are all there. These are reoccurring dreams. Scary huh?

Losing Puppy teeth?
My puppy is nine months old. I haven't found any puppy teeth and in her mouth it doesn't LOOK like she lost any. She should have lost them by now, right? I was just wondering what you all think.
(She does have some crooked teeth and when she was really young she didn't have an underbite, now as she grew, she does.It's kinda cute though.)
Losing Puppy teeth?
Are you sure your pup does not have retained teeth? It happens usually in toy breeds and I am not sure what kind you have. What happens is they keep their baby teeth as the adult teeth try to come in and it pushes the adult teeth out of line which can cause the under bite your seeing now. If you are absoultely sure he never lost his baby teeth make an appointment at the vet.
Reply:Puppies usually have the perm. teeth by 9 months, at least in our breed.
Reply:don't worry about it my dogs did not fall out until she was about 1 year old.
Reply:She should actually have all of her adult teeth by now. Puppy (milk) teeth usually start to fall out around 4 months, and adult teeth should all be in by 7 or 8 months. But you might not have even noticed that her baby teeth were falling out, I`ve only actually seen a couple of my puppy`s. He`s lost quite a few, and they often swallow them because they are so tiny.
Have the vet take a look, just to be sure. If you are getting her spayed soon, the vet will probably remove any remaining baby teeth while she is `under`.
Reply:all of her puppy teeth shouldve fallen out by now. and they can swallow their teeth so you usually wont find them.
Reply:Your dog should be fine, by now all of her puppy teeth are more thna likely gone, plus you usually don;t see them because they swallow them most of the time, I only saw one or two when my dog lost her's so I wouldn;t worry about it.
Reply:It all depends on the puppy just like with babies some are slower then others in looseng their teeth and getting their adult teeth. My King is 9 mos old and he has all of his adutl teeth. He is a german shepard nlack lab mix. Sometimes they will loose there teeth and you wont find them laying around I never found any of Kings. If it would make you feel better call your vet and ask him about.

Is it normal for my almost 5 month old Chihuahua/Dotson puppy to start losing teeth???
My puppy was being her usually self and playing with me and biting everything (including me) in sight!! That's when I saw blood.. So I looked and seen that it was coming from where she had a tooth and on the other side she had a tooth that is in the same spot just opposite dangling!! Is that normal?? She's my first puppy to take care of and I'm freaking out!! And.. If it is normal how do I make her feel better?? I know it kills loosing teeth!! And growing new ones.. How do I ease the pain for her?? Thanks for listening to my concerns!!!
Is it normal for my almost 5 month old Chihuahua/Dotson puppy to start losing teeth???
Yes, she's just losing her milk teeth, it's normal. Her adult teeth will come in. Try a puppy Kong (it's blue and white), you can put her favorite treat (peanut butter, etc) in it and freeze it, or try a Chilly Bone (you soak it in water and freeze it) to help sooth her gums.
Reply:You need do nothing, it's a natural process all pups, like kids, go through...and you might want o look at the second breed there- there's no 'dotson breed.
Reply:whats a dotson??? dachshund you mean?? dogs are like people, they lose their baby teeth and get "big people" teeth. watch the canine teeth though. sometimes the adult teeth can come in and the baby ones wont fall out. that could require surgery
Reply:She's just losing her baby teeth, like humans do, too. There are plenty of dog teething toys for her to chew on. It'll help the new teeth break through her gums quicker. Also, make sure she's got some soft puppy food. It may be tough for her to eat dry food, so she may not eat as much if it's dry food, and she needs her nutrition! Other than that, it's completely normal, and it's just going to take time for those new teeth to grow in. Also, I think you're thinking of the Dachshund breed (pronounced Dock-sund). They're more popularly known as wiener dogs, hot dogs, etc, because they have such long bodies and such little legs! They're commonly bred with Chihuahuas, too. Good luck with your puppy! She'll be fine, just get her some teething toys, some soft food, and plenty of extra love and attention. Also... check for loose teeth or falling out teeth... don't want her to swallow any of them!!!

Losing Baby Teeth?
My son's bottom teeth are growing in uneven and they are making his back teeth push together and now my son keeps thinking he has something stuck in his teeth and now he is saying sometimes that his teeth hurt.
Has anyone else had this happen with new teeth?
Also He is 6 and hasn't lost anymore teeth.
When do they lose there front teeth?
Losing Baby Teeth?
I don't think it is unusual he hasn't lost more teeth. I seem to remember there being a long time between losing the bottom and the top teeth - maybe as much as a year - and then another long period before more teeth were lost. Now, at 10, in the past month, he has lost 7 teeth! If you are concerned about the spacing and he is having pain, it may not be a bad idea to consult your dentist. Perhaps there are adult teeth coming in, or something else going on that is causing him pain. The dentist can tell a lot about what is going on by doing x-rays - ours told us our son would be losing a bunch of teeth all at once and soon, and she was right on the mark :) Good luck!
Reply:depending when he got them depends on when they will loose them...if they are all jammed in there right now %26amp; he doesn't have many adult teeth, you may want to take him to the dentist to get some ideas. they may try a retainer to help with the comfort for him.
Reply:usually around age 6 is when they lost their front 2 teeth. Sometimes they need to be pulled. You may want to get him in sometime soon to see a dentist.
Reply:He should be losing his front teeth anytime. If he's having a problem then you might want to take him to the dentist. If there's not enough room for his new teeth they can probably go ahead and pull a baby tooth.
Reply:My son is almost seven and just lost his front teeth. I think that if he has pain, it would be worth checking on with a dentist. They do xrays that help you know what is coming and if they need help to get there.
Reply:Well I can only tell my tell. My son is 9 years old. He just got six baby teeth pulled at the dentist because they would not fall out on there on. He has two more teeth has to come out.
Before his next appointment in Sept or they will pull those to. Th dentist asked me your son is not a fan on pulling his own teeth. I told him no. Now I have a nephew who will pull his teeth out in a minute. It will happen soon enough on those front teeth. You know that's usually the first ones to go.
Reply:My daughter lost her two bottom front teeth at the age of 6, almost 7. The new teeth were completely grown in before those two teeth fell out though so they were way behind. I went to the dentist and he said there is really nothing they can do about it at this point and he said in general they won't pull baby teeth. So we just had to wait, they did fall out and the adult teeth have moved forward some but still aren't completely in line with the rest of the teeth. The dentist said that just because they are crooked now it doesn't mean they will be crooked forever. My friend's son has really crooked teeth, at the age of 8 he had to wear what they referred to as an "appliance" for a few weeks, it's all to start straightening his teeth and eventually get him ready for braces. My daughter is 7 1/2 and she just now lost one of her top front teeth, it's been loose forever, I'm so glad it finally came out! Good Luck.
Reply:Get him to a dentist if he's having pain. My youngest daughter's permanent teeth came in before she lost her baby teeth and she was in agonizing pain from it because her teeth were being pushed all around. The dentist pulled 4 of her teeth and the pain was immediately relieved. He explained that some child's teeth do not come in to the appropriate spot (misplaced) therefore they do not push out the baby teeth correctly.
Reply:You've got to get him in to see a dentist, so they can intervene if necessary.
Reply:Take him to the dentist.

How old are dogs suppose to be when they start losing teeth?
I have a chi-weenie and he is about 4 months and his 2 front teeth are already gone.....is this ok?
How old are dogs suppose to be when they start losing teeth?
Usually 17 weeks for the front teeth.
Reply:Usually puppies start loosing teeth at about 6 months. Although it is not unheard of for them to loose teeth early. Was there any trauma to his mouth? I would check with your vet if you are concerned

My 5 year old son's first tooth is loose.... is it too early for him to be losing teeth?
Also behind the loose tooth, there is another tooth growing behind it... is this normal? This has happened to so suddenly and hes got really cute straight teeth.... is this a problem already, or is going to need braces later on?..thanks :)
My 5 year old son's first tooth is loose.... is it too early for him to be losing teeth?
The age of your son isnt really a big factor in his teeth loss. My daughter had a similar situation, except hers was in the front, where the tooth grew in before the old one left. Hers looked hidious and i was worried sick. The dentist just told us that it was time for the baby tooth to come out and he had her practice loosening it up, it wasn't even a loose tooth yet! So then the old one came out and the new one grew in. Now weither or not he will need braces is something only a dentist will know for sure. Children grow and change so much as does their skull and facial structures. Most childrens teeth are a little crooked but like i said, a lot of things can factor into needing braces like accidents, wisdom teeth problems, and heridity that lead. Keep him brushing and to a dentist evey 6months and you will be on the right track for optimum dental health for your child.
Reply:No. It is a perfectly normal age to be losing teeth at.
Reply:No, this is very normal. My brother lost his first tooth when he was two. The tooth behind it is his big boy permanent tooth.
Reply:It's not too early and, if he already has a tooth growing in behind it, the baby tooth SHOULD be loose. The tooth should fall out on it's own and the permanent one will drift down into its place. It might help for him to wiggle the baby tooth a bit to encourage it to come out. Don't worry - it won't hurt anything. It's perfectly normal to start losing teeth at 5. =)
Reply:I started losing teeth early like that. I also got teeth early as an infant (at a few months). My teeth are fine. I needed braces, but just on the front 8 teeth on top and bottom, not my entire mouth. I also only had them on for a little over a year. I also had almost all of my adult teeth by 8 started getting my wisdom teeth at 10 (12 year molars at 8)! The orthodontist wouldn't believe my mom when she told him, until he saw them himself. I still have them with no problems, and I'm 26 now. I don't know what they do with kids now, but when I had braces, a lot of kids had them on for years. I'm sure he's fine. All kids are different. I knew one guy who had to get the rest of his baby teeth pulled at about age 18, and he's fine, too. Don't sweat it, but take him to a dentist regularly.
Reply:If another tooth is growing behind it, then I'd say the loose tooth is late for departure. I had perfect straight baby teeth and the same happened to me. So yes he will need braces. Start saving.
Reply:No it's not to early..and the new tooth coming in is pushing the baby tooth out....nothing to worry about. It is however, a bit early to tell whether he'll need braces or not. Got some years before that's an issue...Enjoy your lil guy!
Reply:doesn't really matter
nearly everyone gets braces later on anyway
the tooth is probably loose because the other tooth is pushing it out
I'd only be worried if his adult teeth have any problems
ask your dentist if your still unsure about these answers
Reply:It is the right time for him to be losing teeth and it is normal for another tooth to be showing already. The other tooth coming in is what pushes the old one out. It is too early to tell if he will need braces yet or not. I wouldnt start worrying quite yet.
Reply:OK what ever one here says will not have the right answer believe me . Because we can't see the way you son teeth are . And what way the look. But you will have to just go to a dentist . You son will not be a scared . As long as you don't tell him about a injection .
