This subject perishes not being so interesting, but believe me it can save you time, money and many headaches...but over all... it can save your children's teeth !!!

  1. Find the piece of tooth:

2.The tooth can be stuck

3.Go to your trusted dentist

If the blow removes the tooth acts as quickly as possible, If this is a milk tooth and has been hit by the blow just wait for it to come back in the mouth.

  1. Look for tooth

  2. Take it for the crown, do not touch it on the root, do not disinfect it

  3. Wash it with a jet of water, do not use anything else.

4.Put it in its alveolus, even if it produces some pain and you have the child to show a scarf or a handkerchief

  1. If you think you are not able to do that, introduce the tooth in saline or milk, do not use alcohol or disinfectants while you reach a dentist

It is very common for children to lose a frontal tooth, this means losing their smile and dental functionality, It could affect their self-esteem and later having problems of growth, development and language, so knowing how to act is a key factor to avoid all of those things.

I hope these tips can result useful for you ...
