Never Replace a Baby Tooth

Never try to put a baby tooth back in the socket once it has come out. Doing so can improperly fuse the tooth to the socket and damage the permanent tooth when it grows in. Instead, simply wait until an adult tooth grows in the socket.

Replacing a Knocked-Out Tooth

If you knock out an adult tooth, gently rinse off any dirt with milk or saline, like a contact lens solution. Do not scrub or make harsh contact with the tooth’s root. Softly press the tooth into the socket and seek immediate help from a dentist for the best chance of saving the tooth.

Getting Emergency Dental Help

Try to stay calm when you knock out a tooth. The faster you act to safely press the tooth back into your gums, the more likely a dentist will be able to preserve the tooth. Once you’ve cleaned the tooth and reinserted it, call a dentist right away for professional attention.
