Baby tooth wobbly, then snapped

[messystressy]

My DS (5) has had a wobbly bottom tooth. The one next to it recently fell out NC I can see the adult teeth coming through the gumline. But the adult teeth pushed the baby tooth sideways and the baby tooth came out today. Looking at the tooth, it seemed that it snapped at the root, and I can see a little bit of tooth left in his gum. Has anyone had any experience of this? Wondering whether to take him to the dentist, bug presume the adult teeth will push the remnants of the baby tooth to the surface? Thanks!

NC? Think that was supposed to be 'and'...god, more typos,sorry!

Baby teeth usually snap at the root and the root dissolves in the gum. Its rare to get a tooth with the roots still intact

If you're worried, take the tooth to the dentist and they'll tell you if its abnormal

Aaah! Interesting, had no idea. I might see how it goes but thanks for advising. Couldn't find anything on Google, Mumsnet is a godsend!
