See Dentist ASAP: X rays and antibiotics are usually needed in these cases. The extent of damage to supporting structures determines the outcome. See the dentist in the morning.

Oh, my: Please see your Pediatric Dental Specialist or General Dentist immediately. Tooth and/or surrounding bone, as well as underlying permanent tooth, may be damaged. Clinical and x-ray examination required to determine cause of mobility and correct treatment. Please call now.
