What Should I Do With Knocked-Out Teeth?

A knocked-out tooth is one of the most urgent dental emergencies. If your child experiences this, here’s what you should do immediately:

1. Find the Tooth:

Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root, to avoid damaging the tissues necessary for reattachment.

3. Reinsert if Possible:

Try to place the tooth back in its socket. Fold a piece of clean gauze and place it above the tooth. Have your child gently bite down on it to hold the tooth in place. If that’s not possible, keep it moist by placing it in a container with milk or your child’s saliva

2. Rinse if Dirty:

Use milk or saline to gently rinse the tooth if it’s dirty. Do not scrub it or remove any attached tissue fragments.

4. See the Dentist Immediately:

Time is critical in saving a knocked-out tooth. Call us immediately for the best chance of saving your child’s natural tooth.

Prevention Is Best

While not all dental emergencies can be prevented, regular check-ups and maintaining good oral hygiene can significantly reduce the risk of sudden dental problems. Here are some preventative tips:

Regular Dental Check-Ups: We'll give your child's teeth a deep clean and be able to detect and treat dental issues before they escalate.
Proper Oral Hygiene: Brushing twice a day and flossing daily keeps your teeth strong and healthy, preventing emergencies such as infection.
Protective Gear: Wearing mouthguards during sports can prevent many injuries.
Avoid Hard Foods: Chewing ice or hard candies can lead to cracks and other damage.

Pricing and Insurance

We strive to make emergency dental care accessible and affordable for all our patients. Our office accepts most insurance plans and offers various payment options for those without insurance. We understand that emergencies are unplanned, and our staff is here to help you understand your options and maximize your benefits.
