Are There Other Concerns?

    Yes. Baby bottle tooth decay is the leading cause of decay and tooth loss in very young children. To avoid this, do not put your baby to sleep with a bottle that contains any sticky or sugary substance. (These include milk, fruit juice, formula or other sweetened beverages.) If the child must be put to sleep with a bottle, use plain water.

    Another common occurrence with active children is trauma that may result from accidents, such as jumping off a diving board, falling over the handlebars of a bicycle, hitting a dashboard or tripping and falling. Bathtubs and coffee tables are also common trouble spots for young children’s teeth. Teeth that sustain such injuries should be treated immediately by the dentist. In many cases further injury or tooth loss can be prevented with prompt care.

    Sometimes very active children will have a healthy tooth completely knocked out. If this happens to a permanent tooth, save the tooth and any fragments or gum tissue. Soak the tooth in milk or water until help can be found. If no milk or water is available, the life of the knocked-out tooth may be prolonged by keeping it moist in saliva by holding it under the tongue, or between the cheek and gum.  In many cases the tooth can be reimplanted successfully, if help is obtained within first hour.
