A. If a baby, toddler, or young child injures the gums or baby teeth: Apply pressure to the area (if it's bleeding) with a piece of cold, wet gauze. ...Offer an ice pop to suck on to reduce swelling, or hold an ice-pack wrapped in a washcloth to the cheek.Give acetaminophen or ibuprofen as needed for pain.Call a dentist.
