DS cut 2 bottom teeth at 6 months and has been showing teething signs again in the last week. I have been applying bonjela to his top gums thinking they would cut through next but I had noticed his bottom gums were quite white, like I could see the teeth through the gum ITMS?
Today I felt along the gum at the bottom and the tooth has cut through but it is halfway down the gum; I have spoken to some friends with LO's but no-one else has had this happen and I really don't know what to do now? I'm worried that if it cuts all the way through then it won't be able to move up to where it's supposed to be, but don't see how we can stop it coming through more.
Sorry, this is a bit jumbled, I am stressed out! Anyone with similar experiences or suggestions on what I should do?
Hey Happy Chick,
Sorry, I can't say this has happened with us but I would say if you are concerned then maybe try and get your DS into your GP to have a look?
The other thought I had was if you give your local dentist a call and just speak to them over the phone (if they will do that?). Or maybe go in and ask for someone to have a quick look?
Sorry, not very helpful I suppose - but good luck and I hope it's nothing serious!!
Just go to the dentist & see what he/she says! good luck, I hope ur little man isn't feeling too much pain with it, it must be horrible for him & worring for you too!
Go to the dentist. If you have private health insurance they usually cover 100% cost of kids dental visits. Try to see a paediatric dentist (ie specialising in kids dental health). If you are on the Sunshine Coast I can recommend one in Buderim.
Thanks for your replies I am a worrier so this is stressing me out. I also feel bad that DS must have been in a lot of pain and although I was putting bonjela on, I was putting it on his top gums
I rang a friend and she recommended a dentist so I called and explained what was going on and they fit me in for an appointment on Friday morning. I hope that it is all ok
Thanks again
