Brief Answer:
It is normal for milk or deciduos teeth to fall

Detailed Answer:
Hi...it is normal for deciduous or milk teeth to fall off and permanent teeth to erupt again. It happens at this age. Kindly mention if the temporary teeth are falling or permanent teeth are falling.

Upload an image of the cheek white spot, so that I can tell you what it is. Usually skin lesions ate best diagnosed by seeing.

Vitamin D deficiency or not can be decided only after checking the serum vitamin D levels.
