Bye baby teeth... Hello New Ones!

[Guest guest]

Hello Everybody, I know I might be freaking out too early but I have a motto:

information rules!

My autistic son Mateo is 5 1/2 and I know he is getting close to that time when

he is going to start changing his baby teeth for permanent ones. I know all

kids are different and some start early others late, so you never know. He is

verbal, and his issues are more on the social skills/pragmatic language side

than anything else, however he is and always has been EXTREMELY sensitive to

anything and everything that has to do with his head, hair, face, mouth, ears

and eyes. He has sensory issues and is always a challenge to try to heal him

when he gets hurt. So, for those of you whom have already gone through it, how

did you deal with the " falling " teeth and the new ones issue? What helped?

I would really appreciate any advice you can provide.

Take care

Carolina
