Yes indeed, baby teeth at the age of 10! Last summer my 10
year old (now 11) step daughter lost one of her baby teeth.
I distinctly remember baby teeth coming out at a similar age.
Baby teeth BEGIN being replaced by about the age of 6; this
continues through about the age of 11 or 12.

Yes, I've heard of wisdom teeth coming in as young as 12, but
that is RARE. They usually come in sometime between ages 14 to
early 20s. However, wisdom teeth don't replace baby teeth,
they are an addition to the tooth set, as are several other
teeth (such as, I think, some molars).
