Wiggly Teeth is a kids and now adults general dental practice.
The playroom feel of the practice will make all children and parents feel at ease. This is the first of many things we focus on in creating a stress and anxiety free environment.
Before you bring your child in for a dental appointment, please fill in our online ‘New Patient Forms’
Toothache
Try and get the child to rinse well with warm water. Dislodge any food stuck on or between the teeth with floss. Cold Compress for the swelling. PLEASE DO NOT PUT ANY ASPRIN/ DISPRIN ON THE GUM, this will make the problem worse by burning the gum. See your dentist ASAP.
Chipped or broken tooth
Retrieve the pieces, wash the mouth well and hold a cold, damp cotton wool wad against the bleedy spots.
Primary tooth gets knocked out
Please do not try and re-implant it! Make an appointment as soon as possible. Some Calpol can be given for pain relief
Permanent tooth gets knocked out
Retrieve tooth hold it by the part that is in the mouth (not by the root). Do not scrub the tooth. Try and re-implant. If that is not possible, put it in milk or water WITH a pinch of salt. The tooth has the highest chance of survival if implanted within an hour. So, see the dentist ASAP.
