Contact your dentist: Many of these will reset if you leave them alone but some will have broken a root & die. The tooth is important to save if possible to preserve spacing for future tooth eruption. I would contact your dentist who can discuss what you find on your exam & advise you on how to proceed.

Examination: Immediately take her to a Pedodontist, a Pediatric Dental Specialist. Tooth and or surrounding bone may be fractured. Vitality of underlying permanent tooth must be evaluated. Baby tooth position may have to be corrected, especially it now interferes with her bite. Please call now for an emergency visit.
