What should I do if my child loses a tooth?

Children are all very naughty, and it can be said that being active is almost every baby's nature. Sometimes babies’ activeness and love of playing can cause great trouble to their parents. Because children are very curious about the things around them, accidents often happen if they are not careful, such as falls, bumps, etc. These will happen to every baby during the growth process. What should I do if my baby accidentally loses a tooth?

Children are most likely to suffer dental injuries when they are naughty, so broken teeth should be picked up immediately after they fall out. If there is attached tissue on the surface of the broken tooth, do not use any instruments to remove it at will; do not leave the broken tooth in a dry environment for too long, or place it in corrosive liquid medicine. Instead, place it in fresh milk and seek medical attention immediately.

After the tooth has been strictly processed, it is re-implanted into the original alveolar socket and then fixed together with the adjacent teeth. The tooth can be preserved in 1 to 2 months. This method is called "tooth reimplantation". After a broken tooth is reconnected, in order to extend its service life, you should try to avoid biting hard objects with your front teeth. You should also have regular checkups to detect problems and perform maintenance in a timely manner.

Amoxicillin is the most commonly used antibiotic in pediatrics. It is one of the most common defects in tooth enamel development, manifested as deletions, spots, depressions and browning on the incisors and molars, and is prone to various dental diseases in adulthood. Parents are reminded to be cautious when giving antibiotics to their children, especially in infancy.

When the baby has not yet grown a tooth, parents will use soft gauze to clean the child's gums; when the deciduous teeth have not yet come out, parents will provide the baby with chewing toys to help the child's gums develop.

Teeth cleaning is one of the best ways to protect your teeth.

In fact, it is not uncommon for children to lose their teeth due to accidental falls in our daily lives. This is mainly because parents do not take good care of their children. In fact, this kind of accident can be well avoided. Timely prevention can not only reduce the baby's pain, but also help the baby protect his teeth.
