Oral Lacerations

Cuts in the mouth can be alarming because they bleed quite easily. A small amount of bleeding, mixed with a lot of saliva, always looks worse than it is. If your child has a cut in the mouth, rinse your child's mouth with water several times. The good news is that oral lacerations heal quite well and often do not need stitches. Even lacerations of the tongue heal well quickly.

"Because of (my children's) positive experience, it will influence their dental care for a lifetime! Thank you."
