Broken Tooth
A chipped or broken tooth can happen in an instant—during a fall, an accident, or even while eating. Regardless of how it happens, immediate care is essential. At The Dental Specialists, we’re equipped to treat dental emergencies promptly, helping you save the tooth, relieve pain, and protect your long-term smile health.
What to Do If You Break a Tooth
If you or your child experiences a broken or knocked-out tooth, stay calm and follow these steps immediately:
Locate the broken piece, if possible.
Place it in a cup of milk or saline to preserve the tooth fragment.
Call The Dental Specialists right away for emergency assistance.
Do not attempt to clean or scrub the broken piece.
If the entire tooth is knocked out, gently rinse it with clean water (no soap or scrubbing), and try to place it back in the socket. If that’s not possible, keep it in milk or between the cheek and gums.
The Sooner You Call, the Better the Outcome
Time is critical in dental emergencies. Prompt care increases the chances of saving the natural tooth and avoiding more complex treatment. Our team will do everything possible to see you quickly and comfortably.
