I don't mean just a little. I mean like all the way, so it looks like they're knocked completely out. Happened to a girl in 1st grade and it turned out her teeth weren't knocked out, they were just shoved up inside her gums. She had to have them pulled out, but I was wondering what this type of injury is called. Can it give problems later on? I'm pretty sure these were her baby teeth cuz she was 6 years old.

Intrusion.
And usually they are not extracted, but are simply left alone to re-erupt.

It's called "biting the curb". I think that happened in the movie American History X.
