My DD cracked one of her baby tooth molars earlier. Contacted out of hours dentist and they said to arrange to see our dentist on Monday.

A small part of the tooth has now come out.

Is there anything we should be doing now as I found the out of hours telephone dentist very vague.

If it's hurting, the rest might need to be extracted. Otherwise, they'll probably leave it until the tooth underneath pushes it out.

Thanks that's helpful to know. 😊

They may well want to restore it too. The best thing you can do now is keep it clean until Monday. Try to prevent any food packing and stagnating in the area
