Does anyone recommend their pediatric dentist? I guess that's where I need to start. I want someone who will be reasonable, not too overly eager to be invasive. North Bethesda would be ideal, but Rockville or Shady Grove would be doable, too.
My 11 mos old fell and cut the inside of her mouth Saturday. She screamed like crazy, but stopped in less than 10 minutes. I thought it was just the cut that bothered her. Today, she bit the hell out of my finger, and I noticed that the bite marks were uneven. Because she had bitten the hell out of me and her big sister before, I know that the bite marks used to be even. I can even feel with my finger that one of her front teeth is pushed back. Not up (I don't think - not sure), but maybe 2 mm further back into her mouth. I feel like a POS right now.
Am I looking at surgery or just crooked teeth until it's tooth fairy time?
