What should you do if your child hurts their teeth or jaw?
"If a tooth has been knocked out, the tooth needs to back in the mouth with in 30 min. for the best chance of survival"
- Avoid touching the root because it can be damaged easily.
- If the tooth is dirty, hold it by the upper part and rinse it off with milk. If you don't have milk, don't clean it. Wiping it off may cause more damage.
- If you can't get it back in the socket, put it in a cup of milk and head for the dentist or emergency room.
***Milk will help provide nutrients to the cells, DO NOT place/wash tooth in water
" If your child has hurt their jaw"
- See a doctor
