don't worry, some are late. my son lost his first tooth way after his 7th birthday. I asked the doctor and there is nothing to worry. Also he got his first tooth just before his 2nd birthday

So from what I understood, it makes sense that he will lose them a bit late, and also possibly slowly.
I wouldn't worry.

Nothing to worry at all.
If you really want to know you can check if she has little bumps on her gums, you can sometimes see the shape of the new teeth, this way you know it's going to happen sometimes in the near future

nothing to worry about. my nearly 8 year old still has all her baby teeth non of them are shacking. I asked the dentist he said nothing to worry about. the later the second teeth come the stronger teeth they will be.

My daughter's first tooth came in at 12 months. Her first tooth came out at 8.5. No reason to be concerned.

My daughter is turning 7 this month and hasn’t lost any teeth yet either! she is getting so antsy and says she is the last girl left in her class. I explained to her that in our family, we get and lose our teeth later (she got her first tooth around 12 months) and that it is a good thing. I lost my first tooth when I was 7 or 8. The later you get your grown up teeth, the better chance you have of having strong, healthy teeth without cavities because as you get older, you take better care of your teeth!

I was the last in my class to lose a tooth. I was 7 years old. Each and every one of my teeth put up a big fight before finally conceding and leaving my mouth. Boy, was it frustrating for me when girls would discuss how many teeth they had lost!

one child lost his first by 8. He was super frustrated that all his friends have lost their teeth already.

another child by 7, when he was in the hospital, his first came out & all the volunteers had fun to pick at.

My now 7 yr old has lost 5 teeth already.

My teeth never fell out. I had them all pulled by the dentist/lost some by banging my mouth hard (accident)

ETA I'm not missing any teeth, and I don't have any other issues. They just didn't fall out on their own Dont know

Just make sure to do a Panorama x-ray of the teeth, to make sure there are adult teeth waiting in the wings. My daughter's baby teeth did not come out right away, when I took her to the dentist for a panorama, they discovered she was missing 4 adult teeth, canines and insissors, on top.
apparently it is genetic. A nephew is missing the 2 adult bottom teeth.

Read Arthur's Loose Tooth. "between the ages of 4 and 7 most children lose their deciduous or baby teeth"

None of mine fell out until close to eight. You should be taking her for regular dental cleanings and exams anyway, so your dentist will make sure all is ok.
