Question
My daughter has been complaining of a tooth ache her tooth fell out. Now she saying that it's really sore she did have a cavity that was filled in this tooth. Can you tell me what I can do to ease her pain and what might be causing the pain?
I'm assuming that the tooth that fell out is a baby tooth.It's normal for the area to be a little sore.Let her rinse with some warm salt water(1/4tsp to a full cup) a few times a day and give her some tylenol or advil for her age and weight.She'll be just fine in no time.
