Please help if you have experience - tooth knocked loose at 4 years old!

My DD and another child collided and now her front tooth is slightly loose and she won't bite with it. Yes, it's a baby tooth but she is still so young. Any chance it will firm back up, or do I need to have it pulled?

Go to a dentist and have him look at it. It might firm back, but you have to make sure it didn't effect the permanent tooth.

My DS face planted into concrete when he was two. He killed both his front teeth. But they are still hanging in there two years later. The dentist checks them every six months and said if they cause him any discomfort or pain then they will have to be pulled.

Unless it affects the permanent tooth I doubt they will do anything. 4 isn't that young. My daughter has friends who at four lost a tooth. The only concern would be if the permanent tooth is damaged. I don't think they will pull it either unless it is a real problem.

this happened to DS with an incisor! It firmed back up and is totally fixed now. I didn't think it would happen but it did!

Feed her soft foods for a week or so, nothing she has to bite into!
