Dental Trauma At Katherine I Raymond DDS
 

Knocked-Out Tooth
If the tooth is dirty, rinse it gently in running water. Do not scrub it or remove any attached tissue fragments. Gently insert and hold the tooth in its socket. If this is not possible, place the tooth in a cup of milk, or when milk is not available, in a cup of cool water. Go immediately to your dentist (within 30 minutes if possible). Don't forget to bring the tooth!

Broken Tooth
Gently clean dirt from the injured area with warm water. Place cold compresses on the face, in the area of the injured tooth, to decrease welling. Go to the dentist immediately.

Bitten Tongue or Lip
Apply direct pressure to the bleeding area with a clean cloth. If swelling is present, apply cold compress. If bleeding does not stop, go to hospital emergency room.

Possible Broken Jaw
Do not move the jaw. Secure the jaw in place by tying a handkerchief, necktie or towel around the jaw and over the top of the head. If swelling is present, apply cold compresses. Go immediately to a hospital emergency room.

Being prepared for a dental trauma is no accident. It takes a little time and thought, but by knowing what to do before an accident happens, you may someday save a tooth--yours or someone else's.
