FAQ
common questions
Can a knocked-out tooth be saved?
Often, yes, if handled correctly and you’re seen quickly, ideally within 30 minutes.
What should I do immediately after a tooth is knocked out?
Handle it by the crown, not the root, and keep it in milk or back in the socket if possible, then call us right away.
Is a chipped tooth always an emergency?
Not always, but it’s worth being seen, a fracture that doesn’t hurt today can develop complications.
Should I try to fix a chipped tooth myself?
No, rinse, apply a cold compress if swollen, and call us rather than attempting a fix at home.
