Dental emergencies always happen when you least expect them, that’s why they are called emergencies! From playground/sports injuries to an abcessed tooth, they happen everyday. Are you prepared?
Tip #3
In case of a tooth being knocked out, try to find the tooth! Stay calm; sometimes finding the tooth can be difficult expecially when you are on a basketball court, playground or football field. Hold the tooth by the large crown area and rinse well with water (don’t try to scrub it). If possible, place tooth into the socket and hold in place otherwise put the tooth in a cup of milk while you are on the way to the office. Time is crucial so call us ASAP.
