Emergency Dental Health For Kids<\/h2>\n

Would you know what to do if your child broke a tooth or had a Child’s Tooth knocked out while playing outdoors? Knowing what to do can lessen the pain and save a tooth that might otherwise be lost. Here are four tips to follow if your child experiences a knocked-out tooth:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Try to find the tooth!<\/li>\n
  2. Hold the tooth by the crown and rinse the tooth in water if the tooth is dirty. Don\u2019t scrub it or remove any attached tissue fragments.<\/li>\n
  3. If possible, gently insert the tooth and hold the tooth in its socket while you head to the dentist.<\/li>\n
  4. If that\u2019s not possible, put the tooth in a cup of milk and bring to the dentist. Time is critical, so try to get to your dentist immediately.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
