My child's permanent tooth was knocked out! What can I do?
If you’re sure it is a permanent tooth, hold the tooth by the crown, and if it’s dirty, rinse the root with water. Do not scrub the tooth or remove any attached bits of tissue. If possible, gently insert and hold the tooth in its socket with a clean wash cloth or gauze. If this isn’t possible, or if the child cannot safely hold the tooth in his/her mouth, put the tooth in a container with milk, saliva or water. Take your child to the dentist as quickly as you can. Don’t forget to bring the tooth and any other fragments you can find.
My child broke part of his tooth off! What should I do?
Rinse the mouth with warm water to keep the area clean. Put cold compresses (like an ice pack or a washcloth with ice wrapped inside) on the face to reduce swelling. Go to the dentist right away. If you can find the broken tooth fragment, bring it with you to the dentist, and if possible, wrap the tooth piece in some wet gauze or a wet towel.
What should I do after severely biting my tongue or lip?
Clean the area gently with a cloth and place cold compresses (like an ice pack or a washcloth with ice wrapped inside) on the area to keep swelling down. If there is a lot of bleeding or if it doesn’t stop after a short period of time, go to a dentist or emergency center.
How should I remove a piece of food that is stuck in between two of my teeth?
Gently try to remove the object with dental floss. If that does not work, go to the dentist. Do not try to remove the object with a sharp or pointed instrument.
What can I do to help with a toothache?
Rinse the mouth with warm water to clean it out. Take what you would normally take for pain, but do not put aspirin directly on the aching tooth or gum tissue. Go to the dentist as soon as you can.
I think my jaw is broken! What do I do?
Apply cold compresses (like an ice pack or a washcloth with ice wrapped inside) to control swelling. Go to the dentist or emergency center right away.
