Keep Tooth Moist

Control Bleeding

Avoid Aspirin

Drive Directly

If a tooth is knocked out, handle it by the crown, not the root. Rinse gently with water, then reinsert if possible. If not, keep it in milk or saliva.

Apply firm, consistent pressure with a clean gauze or cloth to the bleeding area for at least 15-20 minutes. Avoid rinsing vigorously.

Do not take aspirin or ibuprofen, as these can thin blood and worsen bleeding. Use acetaminophen for pain relief if necessary.

Proceed immediately to our 24/7 clinic at 18699 N 67th Ave. Time is critical for successful treatment of many dental emergencies.
