Is it normal for a 15 year old to still have baby teeth? I just lost a tooth a few days ago and I've been worried. Everyone else I know has already lost all of theirs.

i lost all of mine by 6th grade. you could talk to you dentist.
according to this, you should loose them all by age 13.

When I was in 4th grade, my baby teeth weren't falling out, so I went to the dentist and he pulled 5 of them. So maybe your dentist will recommend that, because I don't think it's normal for a person at 15 to still have baby teeth.

Well I'm turning 14, and I still have some of my baby teeth. My grandmum told me that people grow differently, so it depends on how your grow or something. If not, then I guess your doctor would pull them out for you.
Is pulling out baby tooth good for you? ^
Cause i always tought that it should fall by itself when it was ready, so pulling it out by command, i would think is not good?
But i don't know, Im turning 14 soon and i pretty sure i dont have any of my baby tooth anymore. Visiting a dentist should get your asnwers solved, No?

^It depends on the situation. If it bothers your permanent teeth growth, that might be considered to pull that out.
Anyway, I am 15 and I still have 4 baby teeth, according to my x-ray scan for orthodontics (braces)...I guess I should do something about that.
Even now, I got my braces off and still I have 4 baby teeth left.

I lost all my baby teeth by age 11.... I don't think it's a major problem. If you have a lot of baby teeth, you should probably visit a dentist, but if it's only one or two, just let them fall out on their own.

well, I lost all my baby teeth by age 12.
I think the doctor might insist you to pull out all of those baby teeth. Cause if you don't, the new tooth might grow out and then your teeth will be slanted..

Apparaently it's not a big deal. I told the dentist and she just said ok.
