If you need to remove a tooth for a child, but there is no way to visit a doctor, do it yourself. However, you must be extremely careful not to harm the gums and not frighten the child. You also need to follow all the recommendations after tooth extraction.
Instructions
Step 1
If the change of milk teeth proceeds without any complications, you will not need the services of a doctor. You just need the child to loosen the tooth himself until it falls out.
Step 2
If, after a tooth has fallen out, the gums begin to bleed, it is necessary to apply cotton wool with a special disinfectant solution. During this period, you need to carefully and carefully handle your teeth.
Step 3
It's good when the child is calm. And when he breaks loose and hysteria, then what to do? This is the most common problem. It all depends on the mood of the parents. If the child does not calm down, try to show him an example on other children, how big they are at his age, and behave calmly. You can promise the child to fulfill his wish, but in return he must visit the dentist.
Step 4
If you feel pain, you do not need to try to remove the tooth yourself. You should visit a specialist at the clinic. He will administer anesthesia and perform the necessary procedures.
