Frequently Asked Questions
If you experience dental trauma and lose a tooth, try to place it back into the socket gently, if possible. If that’s not feasible, place the tooth in a glass of milk or saline solution to preserve it. It’s crucial to see a dentist as soon as possible, ideally within an hour, to increase the chances of saving the tooth. Contact us immediately for urgent care.

Treatment for dental trauma depends on the severity of the injury. If you’ve knocked out a tooth, we may attempt to re-implant it or suggest a dental implant or bridge. For fractured teeth, treatments can include bonding, crowns, or root canals. In cases of soft tissue injury, such as damaged gums or lips, we may perform suturing or other treatments to promote healing and comfort.
