See your dentist: You need to see your dentist right away to see if the teeth were knocked out or broken at the gum line. I presume that the teeth were in the front of the mouth. If they were knocked out completely with the root, you can elect to leave the area alone until the permanent teeth start to erupt at about 5 or 6 years old. Follow up with your dentist for specific treatment!

Maybe nothing.: If you have two whole teeth, nothing can be done. If the teeth look broken take your child to your dentist. If you didn't take your child to the dentist for their one year old dental wellness visit, this would be a good time to do it.

Why worry...: If your child really doesn't make a big deal out of it and at that age..Why should they. But if you make a big deal and constantly comment about it..Then that may cause a problem. You never said what teeth. Remember if they are front ones..Many kids start losing and getting those from 4 years and beyond. So you don't have too long to wait.

Baby tooth loss. : Most common teeth lost from tripping are upper front. Girl's don't loose these until 6.5-7, boys until 7-8. Early loss can result in alteration in speech/swallowing/position of adjacent teeth/eruption of underlying permanent teeth. Should have been seeing a Dentist since 1st b'day. Go for evaluation. Referral to a Pediatric Dental Specialist, a Pedodontist, is recommended. Cold compresses for 24hr
