‼️ Attention all parents, teachers & coaches: this one is for you!
One of the most common dental injuries for kids is accidentally knocking out adult teeth during activities like soccer, hockey or at the playground.
The number one thing you should remember at this moment is: get the tooth BACK in place as soon as possible.
You can gently clean off the tooth (without running it under water) and place it back in place to give the tooth the best chance of surviving.
If the tooth is partially broken, you can put the broken half in a glass of cold milk until you can get to your dentist, who can then usually replace the tooth with glue.
Remembering these tips gives you the best chance of saving that tooth!
