Sons tooth came out while brusing but it doesn't look right or like it was ready! help!?

Question

my son had a somewhat loose baby tooth, and this morning while brushing he was fooling around pushing at it with the brush forcing it to bend and it came out... it doesn't look like when my daughters teeth came out on their own, it looks a bit like he forced it.. it bled quite a bit, is this normal? my daughters teeth bled, but i don't remember them bleeding this much. If a baby tooth comes out a little to soon wil it be ok? should i call the dentist?

Answer 1

It was loose anyway..it's fine.  My daughter accidentally got her front tooth knocked out very prematurely and it took a whole year for the adult tooth to come in.

Answer 2

if it was loose, it was due to come out I suspect that your boy had been prodding at it, they wont leave it alone even though there is a slight bit of pain. they want to get this thing that's moving around and annoying them.

girls seem to get a bit afraid of the movement and are already thinking about if it comes out will it be sore and scary and bloody!! aargh!!! and that logic seems to deter them for a bit longer

an old remedy that my dad used with all of us was. when the tooth is obviously loose but perhaps attached by a strand of gum.

he used to buy a packet of toffo's (any kind of chewy toffee will do)

we took the toffee, and bit into it as hard as could be,surrounded by lots of cheers and encouragement,

when you open up your mouth the tooth will have been plucked out, yes theres still blood but the whole event is paised about just how clever you are at sorting out a lose tooth all by yourself.youcan have the remainder of the sweets for your efforts and look forward to the tooth fairy as well. what a little stepping stone of learning there

cheers...x

Answer 3

stop worrying its fine ,it wouldnt have come out that easy if it wasnt meant to

Answer 4

my daughter has about two in the back that is coming up and the two in the front is coming out one in the front is very loose and she refuse tolet me pull it out.  it bleed a little, but i am not sure how it will look once it is out.   my daughter is 5 turning 6 in december of this year. your son will be fine. his permanent teeth will grow in place
