My puppy chipped off the tip of one of his canine (long front) teeth. When I took him in for his shots and pointed out the tooth, the vet said this: "It's okay, because he will lose that baby tooth and an adult tooth will come in, just like humans do. It is very common for puppies to bite on something too hard and chip a tooth."

They say that your teeth will last longer if you grew your baby teeth late.Answer B:It depends on when you START loosing your teeth. For example, I began losing my teeth in the first grade, and I am still losing teeth, in Grade 6. You should probably start losing your teeth around the ages of 5 - 8, and stop losing your teeth in the ages of 10 - 13.Calculate the time when you, your child, or whoever started losing their teeth, then add about 5 to that number. That SHOULD be the approximate age of the end of tooth losing.
