milk teeth

[elderado]

My daughter is coming up to 8 years old, she still has not lost any milk teeth, and her adult teeth are now coming through, is this a problem or is it a common issue??

i had to have some of my milk teeth removed beacuase they didnt fall out, this was a blessing in disguise as before then going to the dentist was one of my worst things and afterwards it was just like "Oh, was that it?" and now don't mind going. I think I was 12/13 when I had them taken out.

This needs watching, as the milk teeth just might make the adult teeth grow in squint.
I had this problem developing as a child and had to have 13 milk teeth removed all at the same time. It was no big deal really, but traumatic to me as a child...
