I didn't lose my first baby-tooth until I was nine years old—and I lost that one in an accident where I slipped and hit my mouth on the bathroom sink. For the next couple of years I lost a few teeth naturally. Around 13, I had nine baby teeth pulled in the space of a couple months to encourage the permanent teeth I did have underneath to move in and one had to be sort-of anchored and pulled up over time. But I still have several baby teeth in my mouth even now and I'm over 40. The only good part of it is that I was also missing wisdom teeth so never had to worry about having those removed.
