My 5 month old kitten is losing her baby teeth

Poor thing, she's got one that's really loose. I can hear it moving in her gums when she bites and it's driving her crazy. It must itch like hell. How can I help her?

1. Let her bite you.

2. I don't know, but I think it will probably fall out on its own pretty soon.

Once I found a little bitty fang in the rug that my kitten had lost. He never showed any signs of teething problems; his baby teeth fell out and new ones came in without incident. Usually you never find the teeth that fall out.

3. Most of the time they swallow the teeth

It'll be over before you know it. My wife found 3 from our first kitten and none at all from our second.
