No experience whatsoever but just a big dragonny hug

I'm sure he'll be fine - did they say what they'd have to do? Remove one of the teeth?

I had it myself. Second tooth turned sideways and heading off in the wrong direction so I had to have the baby tooth removed.
In my case I had nothing done until I was 30 so I had to have an implant in the end but if it had been done much earlier they could have turned the original tooth.
Even with the mess I let it get to it wasn't that big a deal (just expensive) and most of the treatment was done under local anaesthetic.
Horrible when your little ones have to have a general though. Dd got a bit of sweetcorn (yes sweetcorn) stuck in her ear when she was 3 and had to have a general to have it removed. I hated that but she was fine.

lots of hugs and best wishing being sent your way from here...hope it goes ok for him...

Will he have to have a GA or can they do it under sedative, coddy? Have they said?

(He's much too little for them to try to look with a local.)

oh poor thing - hope he doesn't need surgery.

oh no cod, poor ds1

Hi, My DD had a tooth taken out last week under a GA last week. It was very quick and she was up and running about very quickly and didn't even need any painkillers! I think I was more stressed than her. I hope your DS doesn't need any surgery and the dentist is able to sort it out.
