π¦· TOOTH TRAUMA β Every Minute Counts!
A fall, a knock or a sports injury can damage a childβs permanent tooth in seconds β but what you do next can make all the difference.
If a tooth is chipped, broken or knocked out, follow these steps:
βοΈ Stay calm
βοΈ Find the tooth or fragment
βοΈ Keep it moist (milk or saline)
βοΈ Get to the dentist IMMEDIATELY
π¨ A knocked-out adult tooth can often be saved β but only if it is treated within 30β60 minutes.
At VR Dental, we see dental trauma often. Quick action + correct handling = the best chance to save your childβs smile.
