Loose tooth! First one?
Be very easy about it. Don't make is sound scary or anything. Say Wow, wiggle it for me and let me see how loose it is today! And then say Oh super it looks even looser now than last time. Then tell her that you will pull it if she really wants you to, but that if she will keep pushing it with her tongue, she can get it out herself. It is soooo much less traumatic when they can feel that they have control of the situation. But never make it sound scary at all. And let her know you are there to help her out if she wants, but that you have faith that she can do it. And then if she does get it out herself... make a BIG deal of it. I am SO proud of you! Etc.
Reply:let it come out naturally, dont pull it before it's time...





And its up to you whether you want to do the toothfairy thing--- however much children enjoy it
Reply:tie a string around it and yank it out
Reply:It'll come out.
Reply:Prepare to do your job, tooth fairy.
Reply:Just have her keep wiggling it. It'll fall out on it's own, when it is ready to come out. It can take awhile but it'll get there. If for some reason, you are concerned, take her to her dentist though just in case.
Reply:Wait til it falls out. Trust me, im speaking from experience. My dad pulled mine out and it was very trumatic for me.
Reply:It will come out eventually... especially if she plays with it with her tongue, lol.





Make sure she doesn't wiggle it with her hand, that's a bit unsanitary sometimes...
Reply:give her corn on the cob that always worked for me
Reply:Don't let her eat anything really hard because it will hurt when it comes out and then she will be scared of any other teeth being loose. Let her play on the play ground and do everything else normal. It's best to let it come out on it's own. DON'T Try to take it out yourself!!!
Reply:Pull it out, pull it out !! Make her cry !! Let it come out on it's own, she might not be to happy if you pull it out. lol =) Congrats!
Reply:Get a string...Put it on the door knob and slam the door!!!!!NO not really Let it fall opt on it,s own....Then be sure the tooth fairy rewards her well!@!!!!
Reply:Leave it alone unless you can lay it flat. If it's so loose you can lay it flat, use a bit of cloth to get a grip on it and gently tug. If she yipes, stop tugging and wait a day or so.





They'll come out on their own without your help, so if you don't want to tug, don't.
Reply:what i did is move the tooth the opposite direction it fall out quick and gone before they know it and leave her a nice tip under the pillow
Reply:It is best to let the tooth fall out on its own. Yanking or knocking it out will cause excess bleeding and can further expose the gums to infection. However, after many days, if it is still there, have your daughter bite into an apple. This will remove the tooth more naturally than pulling.
Reply:just leave it alone im only 14 so i can still remember quite well on what its like to have a loose tooth. it will fall out on its on accord or if your really impatient just yank it out!!! but it will be painful!!!!
Reply:yes let it come out naturally, but also tell her it is ok to wiggle it. The wiggling will help it come out faster.
Reply:oh this is very cute :). If it's annoying her too much, then pull it out with a string. Otherwise it should fall on its own... I didnt know u have a 5 year old!!
Reply:it will come out, give her an apple even if it is sliced it will help it come out.
Reply:my son has lost 2 so far and we just leave them to come out on there own. normal when he is eating lol xxx
Reply:my 7 year old just lost a 4th.... it was really loose, and she just kept wiggling it with her tongue. it came out by itself somehow when she stuck a juicebox straw in her mouth. let it come out on it's own, and let her wiggle it to her heart's content.
