Question 8

My tooth was knocked out - what do I do?

Accepted Answer

Act immediately. Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root). Rinse gently with water but do not scrub it. Keep it moist - ideally place it back in the socket, or store it in milk or your own saliva. Call us instantly - re-implantation is most successful within 30 minutes.
