DD1 (2.9) has fallen off a slide today. I wasn't there but MIL said that there was lots of blood and they thought that she had just caught her bottom lip on her tooth.
It's now a few hours later and she's not complained of being in any pain but when I cleaned her teeth I noticed that the skin between her lip and gum is torn and that the gum around her four front teeth is black. Her lip is also now swollen.
DP doesn't think that a trip to the doctors/dentist is needed but I disagree. Although, I'm not sure that there's much that they could do.
I don't want to be seen to be creating a fuss as poor MIL feels awful as it is!
TIA
