Can someone tell me if kids lose their molars before getting permanent molars?

Is there a site to find info on permanent and secondary teeth?

Can someone tell me if kids lose their molars before getting permanent molars?
Tom, I agree. I think this list of answers is the most consistantly wrong of any I've ever seen here. Thank you.

Reply:yes. the new perminant molar pushes its way through the jaw bone and pushes the baby tooth out.
Reply:Yeah kids lose their molars like they would their front teeth before they get their permanent ones.

the permanent first molars (a.k.a. 6 year molars) usually come in before the kids lose any teeth. after those 4 come in the lower incisors will come out. the primary molars come out around 9 or 10 years of age and in their place the permanent premolars (bicuspids if you're old school) come in. then around 12 the kids get their permanent 2nd molars.
