Holding the crown, place the root back in the socket and have your child bite and hold onto a clean gauze or cloth.

Pediatric dentists are dental specialists who complete residency training after finishing dental school.
As one of the recognized specialties of the American Dental Association, this additional training focuses on the age-appropriate treatment of children from infancy to the late teenage years, including those who are medically compromised or have special health care needs.
You can think of us as a "dental pediatrician" whose mission is to deliver dental care for children of all ages, but especially for the ones who may be very scared or anxious and need something extra to help them get through their visits.

An anesthetic will be used to numb parts of the mouth (teeth, gums, lips, cheeks, tongue, or palate).
Monitor your child for any biting, chewing, or scratching of the lips, cheek or tongue.
This may result in swelling or laceration that will be uncomfortable once the anesthetic wears off.
Avoid solid and hot foods until the anesthetic wears off (can take up to 2 hours).
Give your child something cold and soft to eat, like yogurt, Jello, milkshake, or ice cream.
If your child feels any pain or discomfort after the anesthetic wears off, you may give them Children's Tylenol (if they are not allergic).
