What to do if your child's teeth fall out

Because children love to play and like to eat sweets, their teeth are often damaged to varying degrees due to some accidents or eating too much high-sugar foods. One of the things parents worry about most is their children's teeth falling out, which may be caused by tooth decay or an accident. So what should we do if our child loses his teeth? Now let me tell you how to deal with the situation of children losing their teeth. Parents can refer to the opinions.

1. If medical conditions are limited at the time, the fallen tooth should be cleaned, placed in light salt water, normal saline or milk, and antibiotic solution should be added appropriately, and stored in a low temperature environment, such as in a refrigerator at 3-4 degrees Celsius. Then go to the hospital to see a dentist.

2. After a child's tooth falls out, if there is attached tissue on the surface, do not remove it with instruments at will, and do not leave it in a dry environment for too long or place it in corrosive liquids. If the missing tooth involves the tooth socket or gums, do not remove it at will. After rinsing, put it in light salt water and go to the hospital for treatment by a dentist.

3. If a child's fallen tooth is broken, usually a horizontal fracture, do not throw it away at will. Instead, preserve the tooth as mentioned above and immediately take it to the hospital for treatment.

4. When a child's tooth falls out accidentally, the tooth should be quickly found, the dirt should be immediately rinsed off with clean water or light salt water, and the child should be taken to the nearest hospital for dental treatment in time.

5. Regardless of the cause of missing teeth and the number of missing teeth, they should be filled in time to restore the integrity and function of the dentition. This is also beneficial to maintaining the health of the remaining teeth, alveolar bone and other oral tissues.

When a child's teeth fall out, parents must not panic. They should not only learn the above methods, but also go to the hospital in time to seek help from a dentist. In addition, the editor believes that the most important thing is that parents should teach their children how to protect their teeth in daily life.
