This is a painful question that parents often ask me after their child fell down and hurt his new front tooth that has just erupted. What hurts even more is that most dental injury are irreversible in this age, many evulsion cases because of the soft bone.

What to do?
Little injury: the tooth was just broken
It can be fixed. it depends how severe is the injury. if it is a little one then we just make a restoration of the lost dental material and everything would go back to normal as nothing has happened.
Big injury: sever tooth damage:
we may consider root canal treatment. Attention, after the root canal treatment we should protect the tooth with a crown but only after age 18 years old after the last tooth was erupted in order not to interfere with the development process.
Total lost of the tooth:
Children undergo changes from day to day, the body grows, the jaws, teeth changing and moving from place to place. As long as the child did not finish the stages of developmen it is impossible to place an implant. When therefore possible? Around age 16-18 after replacing all teeth.
