    Thanks everyone Just for future reference if anyone has this happen, I am glad we went to the dentist. He checked it over, she had a bit of bleeding we couldn't see behind it but it's not too bad considering. He took an x-ray and the adult tooth hasn't been damaged, although it may still come out with a white mark on it. We need to watch for a gum pimple thing or any discolouration on the tooth itself over the next 2 weeks before we see him again, and then will go yearly or so I think he said til her adult one comes out. It may or may not drop down from where it is now. She can only eat soft foods for a week or so and is in no pain so far which is lucky otherwise we could give panadol.

    Can I just say the dentist we saw was AWESOME with her too, camp as a row of tents and just absolutely gorgeous with her and telling her pink is his favorite colour and that he loves Dora. Best bit is they are about 2 minutes from here as well! Yay!!! She was also amazing and I have to thank Dorothy the Dinosaur for showing kids what happens at the dentist!! Trooper girl.
