Pain in the teeth during the night strongly indicates pulpitis due to tooth decay. Kindly consult a dentist in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations with clinical examination to decide upon treatment. You may need root canal treatment and crown. Advance procedures can be done with laser.

I'm sorry to hear about your son's dental injury. It must have been a difficult experience for both of you.
It's uncommon for all four front teeth to be removed in a young child unless there was severe trauma or underlying dental issues. Removing all four front teeth at such a young age can have implications for speech development and self-esteem.
I understand that it's been two years since the procedure, but if you have any concerns about your son's dental health or the way the initial ...more

importance of medication:
infection prevention: pericoronitis is an inflammation of the gum tissue surrounding a partially erupted tooth, making it prone to infection. Antibiotics like augmentin 625 help prevent and control bacterial infections.

I understand your concern about your child's broken teeth and the possibility of cementing them. However, I am not a medical professional and cannot provide medical advice, especially when it comes to a young child's injury.
It is crucial that you seek immediate medical attention from a pediatric dentist to assess the damage and determine the best course of treatment for your child.
Here's why:

Hi
in many people, wisdom teeth don't break through the gum and grow out – or only part of them does. The reasons are multifactorial. This is more common in the lower jaw than it is in the upper jaw. The reason is usually that there isn't enough space for the tooth in the jaw.
Wisdom teeth are usually only removed if they cause problems, or are likely to in the future. (pain, swelling etc.) wisdom teeth that don't break through (sometimes also called “impacted” wisdom teeth) often don't ...more

It's completely understandable to be worried about this situation. Leaving cotton in for 5 days after a tooth extraction can increase the risk of complications, so it's important to address it right away.
Here's what you need to do:
1. Contact your dentist as soon as possible: this is the most important step. Don't try to remove the cotton yourself, as this could further irritate the extraction site. Your dentist will be able to remove it safely and assess the condition of the wound.
