My daughter fell and chipped her 2 front teeth yesterday. We went to the dentist today & there’s no concern for permanent issues at this time. She said there are options for evening them out that we can consider as she gets older. These teeth likely won’t fall out until 6-7 years old.
I just feel absolutely awful.

My sons got a chipped front tooth as he fell off the sofa a few months back. They put a gel thing over it and the tooth looked brand new again but not long after it fell off and I got told to just leave it now as it won’t cause him issues but I feel awful aswell that he’s got his tooth like this for so many more years until his adult ones come in!
I think if it isn’t exposing a nerve and they won’t cut their mouths then they tend to just leave them x

My son fell when he was 3 and chipped one of his teeth. When he lost his teeth it fell out!

My 2 year old son has 4 front teeth missing due to a medical issue causing rapid decay

My son wacked two of his front teeth with metal tongs & gave himself a lil crack(around 1.5 years too), it’s unfortunately led to more decay than we’d like, but under our dentists recommendation we started using fluoride toothpaste at 2 years old & have been able to control the decay!
