What To Do in a Dental Emergency

Knocked-Out Tooth

Pick up the tooth by the crown (white part), not the root. Rinse gently if dirty. Try to reinsert it into the socket. If not possible, keep it in milk or your saliva. See us within 30 minutes for the best chance of saving the tooth.

Severe Toothache

Rinse with warm salt water. Take over-the-counter pain relief if needed. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. Call us for a same-day appointment.

Broken Tooth

Rinse your mouth and save any pieces. Apply gauze if bleeding. Use a cold compress to reduce swelling. Contact us immediately for assessment.

Lost Filling or Crown

Keep the crown if you have it. Apply dental cement or sugar-free gum as temporary protection. Book an urgent appointment to prevent further damage.
