[MERIDIAN, 1/31/2018]—Dental experts say that quickly responding to dental emergencies can help save even a tooth that has been knocked out. Trusted family dentist Scott W. Grant, DMD promptly responds to dental emergencies to be able to provide the best possible solution for the patient.

Quick Responses Can Save the Teeth

The American Association of Endodontists says that after a tooth has been knocked out, a dentist can reinsert and preserve the tooth, given that the patient has immediately taken steps to preserve it.

After a tooth has fallen, the patient must immediately pick it up without touching its root and carefully rinse it. Reinsert the tooth in the socket and immediately bring it to the dentist. If a dental visit is not a viable option at the time, place the tooth in milk and bring it to the dentist the soonest time possible.

Similarly, having a dentist check and remedy abscessed tooth can potentially save a patient’s life. This condition can spread the infection to other areas of the body. Seeing the dentist can help mitigate complications.
