What to Do Until You’re Seen
While you’re waiting to come in, a few simple steps can help protect the tooth and reduce discomfort:
Toothache
Rinse gently with warm water and avoid chewing on that side.
Broken or chipped tooth
Save any pieces if possible and avoid hard foods.
Knocked-out tooth
If you can, place it back in the socket gently or keep it in milk and call us immediately.
Lost crown or filling
Keep the area clean and avoid sticky or hard foods.
For safety, avoid placing aspirin directly on the gums or tooth.
