Inspection

Little children can not specifically indicate the place of pain. In this case, parents should conduct an oral examination to determine the complexity of the problem.

1. Take the flashlight and examine the mouth of the child. If you find a fish bone stuck in the gum (a piece of hard food that has been stuck in the teeth), you should remove it with tweezers.

Remember:tweezers should be sterile clean. This rule should also be applied to the hands.

Know:if the removal of a foreign object is problematic for parents, take the baby to the nearest traumatic point. Do not wait for morning. A miracle will not happen!

1. Pain in the teeth may occur for other reasons. This: dislocation of the tooth, fracture, cracks, the entrance of the tooth into the gum, knocking out the tooth, etc. In case of such damage, contact your dentist. The beaten tooth (provided that the root is not damaged) can still be saved if an hour has not passed since the injury. Place it in saline or warm milk, so that it retains the inner ligaments. This will give the opportunity to grow a tooth root.

Remember:Do not apply cold to the affected area and do not place the tooth in cold water.

1. Teething in babies is also a common problem. Now there are many tools that allow children to cope with the pain ("Kamistad", "Dentinoks-gel", "Calgel", "Baby Doctor", etc.).
