Two common dental accidents include knocked-out teeth and chipped teeth. By following the tips below, you can increase your chances of saving your natural tooth and requiring minimal intervention in our office.

Knocked out tooth:

Knocked-out teeth can be very frightening. Fortunately, it’s not a cause for panic. With prompt care, we can often save a natural tooth. Seeking immediate dental care is critical for saving your tooth. By following the tips below, you’ll receive the best possible outcome:

  1. Find the tooth – hold the tooth by the crown and avoid touching the root, if possible.
  2. Clean the tooth with running water.
  3. Reinsert the tooth, if possible. If you’re able to reinsert the tooth into your mouth, your chances of saving the tooth are very good.
  4. If you can’t reinsert the tooth, place it in a glass of milk. The sugars and proteins in the milk will preserve the tooth for a few hours until you can make it to your emergency visit.
  5. Pack the hole with cotton to stop the bleeding

Chipped tooth/broken:

Broken and chipped teeth are another common dental emergency. Immediate treatment of a broken or chipped tooth is critical.

Broken teeth require emergency dental care – they will not heal on their own. Immediate dental care prevents further damage to the tooth.

If you break or chip a tooth, contact your dentist as soon as possible. Then, follow these tips to care for your mouth leading up to your appointment:

  1. Rinse your mouth with cool water
  2. Apply gentle pressure to stop the bleeding
  3. Preserve the broken tooth fragment until you can reach the office by placing it in a glass of milk
  4. To reduce pain and swelling, apply a cold compress
  5. If the tooth pain is severe, you can take over-the-counter pain medication to alleviate the pain

Whether it’s severe tooth pain or damaged dental work, if you’re experiencing a dental emergency, contact our Hollywood, Florida office immediately. We look forward to caring for you.
