I notice that once we took the baby tooth out she has a piece of fresh very red skin looking on top of the gum were her teeth was is that normal or should I take her to the dentist tomorrow
HiT hank you for your query on ChatDoctorI understood your concern. I also appreciate your interest in the early oral care of your child. Don't worry about the reddish appearance in the region where you push out your children tooth. Its bodies natural mechanism for immunity and response against mild inflammation. It will subside by itself. Consult your dentist if there is overgrowth of the tissues or severe pain. Otherwise, its normal, wait for her strong permanents.
