While supervised, have the child rinse gently with a mild solution of salt water. Make sure they spit it all out when they are done. Go ahead and contact the dentist. It is better to talk to someone there. They may need him to come in to take a look at it. Where the salt water will help to prevent an infection, he may need to go ahead and start some antibiotics. They can also see if any damage was done to the incoming tooth, and how bad the gum was injured.

Check with your dentist if it's a permanent tooth. Generally, you'll be advised to leave it alone until it heals, unless the root is damaged.

Baby teeth like this should not be put back. They may damage the new tooth growing underneath.

4 year old has decay in upper front tooth should tooth be removed or root canal?

If the tooth can be saved with a root canal (pulpotomy) or other treatment, it should be done. The adult tooth that will replace this baby tooth may not erupt until the child is six or seven years old, and the dental arch may shrink if the baby tooth is lost too soon. This will lead to problems when the adult tooth erupts and the child may require extensive and expensive orthodontic treatment to correct the problems.
