The scariest part of a mouth accident is how much blood there can be. Don't panic! Placing continuous pressure on the injured area will stop the bleeding.
If a tooth is knocked out it is very important to put it back in the socket within 30 minutes. You literally can re-implant the tooth and it will stay if done quickly. Don't scrub the tooth because it needs the tiny fibers on the root to reattach permanently.
If putting the tooth back in the mouth is impossible, put the tooth in milk and call our office at 281-815-4188.
