theratprincess Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 My nearly 2 year old son had a nasty accident today (the wheel came off his buggy and it flipped, whilst we were out running). He's fractured his top front tooth. He's been seen by the emergency dentist at Kings, but may need more treatment. Can anyone recommend a paediatric dentist - doesn't matter if private, NHS, local or central London?Thanks Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/21742-paediatric-dentist-needed-urgently/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

theratprincess Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Thanks for all the replies and pms. Sadly my son had his tooth extracted this morning by the Kings paediatric dentistry team, but at least it is now sorted. The care we received there was excellent (can't quite say the same about the out of hours dentistry service provided by SELDOC). For those with a Babyjogger City Mini buggy - it's probably worth regularly checking the wheels, particularly if you run with it. I will be emailing the manufacturer too. I wouldn't want anyone else to end up in our situation.Thanks again.

Sanne Panne Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'm so sorry he lost his tooth. Hope he's ok otherwise. :(Just adding that the Mountain Buggy Swift also seems prone to tip over if you're not handling it as prescribed (e.g. one handed steering with an 18 month old in the buggy and going over a bump (walking fast, not running). Of course, I should have held it with two hands but it doesn't hurt warning other parents... otherwise great buggy.

nymom Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I am so sorry to hear about your son. I also have a citi mini. I am not sure if you know that the manufacturer does not recommend using the citi mini to run or jog. They market it as an urban stroller. on the website it gives more info. I think the brand name makes it misleading.

theratprincess Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Thanks I did realise this. But the problem was not so much the running as the fact that the wheel fell off without warning.
