How to Handle Knocked-Out Tooth
Locate the tooth and pick it up by the crown. Avoid touching the root or any tissue still attached. Gently rinse the tooth of any dirt or debris and place it back into your open socket within 5 minutes of the accident. If this is not possible, you may also keep the tooth contained in milk, salt water, or saliva and get to our dental office within the hour. If we cannot reimplant the tooth, we will discuss your tooth replacement options.
