Should I be concerned about my 8-year-old’s intact baby incisor?

Q.
Dr. Moore, my 8 yr old daughter has lost her top left incisor and since grown a permanent incisor however her right baby incisor remains intact with no signs of it becoming loose. So she has one top permanent tooth and one baby tooth. Should I be concerned?
A.
Not at this age, if she tries to wiggle it it should become loose
