My 9 Year Old Son Got Cut With Some Glass

My 9 year old son got cut with some glass that was on the floor. He has a gash about an inch long and it is not deep, but definitely open. I checked the wound for glass and disinfected it with peroxide several times. I put butterfly closures to keep it closed. Do I have to take him to the hospital for stitches or closures good enough?
