This can be a relatively traumatic event for both parents and children. Firstly it is important to let mother nature do her job. 90% of baby teeth will come out when eating and require no assistance. If you are removing a wiggly tooth it is important that the tooth is extremely mobile and 'ready' to go - if not you can cause damage and pain. We would recommend assessment if a wiggly tooth is not coming out on its own or there are signs of infection developing.
