  • Try not to panic your child by remaining calm and if there is bleeding try to get your child to bite down on some tissue or gauze.  
  • Collect all pieces of cracked, chipped or missing teeth.
  • A drink of water or some ice to suck on may help reduce swelling and manage pain.
  • Contact your child's doctor and dentist at the first opportunity. Treatment may need to begin quickly to save any teeth or prevent infection.
  • If other injury to the mouth or teeth is suspected, x-rays of the area may be needed.
