Hi ... Hope all is well... usual age of lower incisors  exfoliation is 5-6 years so can count this as perfectly normal ... However, your kid could have a malalignment of teeth as the permanent teeth erupt, so visit your orthodontist every 6 months to 1 year. Regards Dr.Sandhya Orthodontist Chennai

Permanent central incisors generally erupt at the age of 6 to 8. So it's completely normal if milk tooth is movable at the age of 5. You should visit dental clinic every 6 months. Still have queries then please consult with doctor online or offline for better guidance and treatment options.

New teeth may erupt. Its just time for milk teeth to shed. Nothing to worry until he had any major fall on his mouth.
