Losing the first baby tooth is a milestone for a child. But perhaps not everything you’ve heard about the process is true, as evidenced by how widespread some myths about this matter are.
Key takeaways:
– It’s not ok to pull loose a child’s baby tooth, as this could cause bleeding and infection.
– It’s very rare for a child to swallow or choke on a loose tooth.
– Caring for baby teeth is important, as this teaches your kids good dental hygiene habits.
Feel free to have a chat with your dentist for advice on how to help your child get through this transitional period.
