It is sad that your toddler has this problem . The front teeth that she has pus discharge are decayed and normally shed around 6 -8 yrs of age . Two treatment options are available. One is to remove the offending tooth completely and the other is to carry out pulp therapy . A child dentist will decide whether to save the teeth or remove it. So Kindly take your kid to a child dentist . But considering her age it is not easy to treat her and consultant dentist may require her to be sedated using general anesthesia . So consult a pedodontist nearby for further clarifications . Pls don't give antibiotics blindly without removing the underlying cause.
