My son is 6 years old. His tooth was about to come off but in the morning it was not there. Had it been swallowed or dropped somewhere not sure. But is it ok if the child swallowed the tooth. Any measures to be taken.

A. Hi no problem if swallowed also as it will com out in poop in 3-5 days. maintain a habit of brushing your kids teeth twice a day using fluoride containing toothpaste
