DS was perfectly average in getting baby teeth, but way WAY late on losing them. There's actually a related old wives' tale that one can't read until one has lost all of one's incisors, which certainly didn't pan out with us!
On top of just generally being late on the tooth fairy end, it turns out DS just doesn't have two of his adult incisors, so there's an excellent chance he just won't lose those two baby teeth at all. (We're hoping he keeps them until he's 18, because if they go before then he'll need a spacer to keep everything in the right place until he's fully grown and can get a permanent implant.) So if we were waiting on incisors before reading... well it could be a long time!
