Everytime my daughter (5) gets dental work done it's a whole ordeal she had to get a tooth pulled and she hasn't eaten or talked since.
Last time she has dental work she didn't eat or talk for a week straight. Any advice?

Is she still in paint or is she just traumatized?

I just had almost the same thing, but I didn't let it go so long.
I told DC that if they don't eat or drink I will take them to the hospital for an IV. That did it.
Distract (screentime is a good idea) while spooning liquids into their mouth.
Lots of positive reinforcement

Were you with her in the room when the work was being done?
