No matter how much we try to avoid it, accidents happen. And from time to time, this accident affects your teeth. And whether it needs immediate attention<\/a> or can wait for an appointment, it\u2019s time to visit the dentist. But how do you know? Here are some basic rules of thumb to keep in mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a tooth is knocked out completely, immediate care is required to save it. It\u2019s possible that the tooth can be re-implanted if you get to the dentist within an hour or so. If you lose a tooth, rinse it with water, making sure not to touch the root<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you chip or break a tooth, call your dentist \u2013 they\u2019ll\nlikely ask you to visit the office in the coming days for inspection. It\u2019s\ndifficult to know the extent of the damage without x-rays and proper checkup,\nso even if you think it isn\u2019t a big deal, make sure to prevent further damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the tooth is pushed inward or outward, GENTLY try to\nstraighten it but do not try to force it into its socket and call your dentist,\nmaking sure to stabilize the tooth with gauze or tissue on your way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As with tooth pain of any kind, there are some simple things\nyou can do at home while you wait for an appointment. Rinse with warm saltwater.\nIf you\u2019re experiencing swelling, apply a cold compress, and take a pain\nreliever. A typical toothache is likely not an emergency, but you should have\nthe tooth checked as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accidents will happen \u2013 but it isn\u2019t time to panic. Rest assured, your dentist can help treat injuries as they happen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
