Suggest Treatment For A Torn Frenulum In Child After Lip Injury
My son is 1 and a half and super clumsy as a result. He tripped on, I don t even know what, and on his way down, hit his upper lip on the coffee table and ripped his frenulum right off the gum. I know that the tissue will heal itself, but should I be cleaning it with something in the meantime? Brushing his teeth, no matter how gentle, seems to be excruciating.
Thanks for query. You can apply antiseptic like betadine solution . Better to get checked by surgeon. Sometime healing may cause scar. Avoid brushing till the injury heals. Hope i helped you.
