Fingerplay: “Five Little Teeth”
There were five little teeth in my teeny tiny mouth
I pulled and I twisted and one popped out
Now there are…one, two, three, four.

Here's my toothpaste

I won't hurry, I won't rush.
Working hard to keep teeth clean
Front and back and in between
When I brush for quite a while
I will have a happy smile.
If your happy and you know it – (clap hands, stomp feet, shout hooray)

Dental emergencies can occur at any time, needing the services of a 24 hour dentists or emergency dentist. But what do you do if you cannot get an appointment or have access to an emergency dentist in London? Fortunately we have a guide for all common types of emergency dentist issues that we see regularly including toothache, wisdom tooth, pain after tooth extraction, broken front tooth, and knocked out tooth. There's also good advice for lost fillings and crowns that come off as well as dry socket and swollen face. How long does it take for pain after a tooth extraction to go away?
