What to Do if You’ve Knocked Out a Tooth
- The first thing you need to do if you knock out a tooth is locate the tooth. When you find the tooth, carefully handle it, and only pick it up by the crown – do not touch the root. Gently rinse off any dirt that is on the tooth, and then store it in a sealed container which has been filled with milk or contact solution.
- Make sure you immediately apply pressure to your mouth with a clean cloth or tissue to control the bleeding. The sooner you can get to our practice, the more likely it is that you will be able to save your tooth. We offer same-day dentistry to accommodate dental emergencies.
