Can Knocked Out Teeth Be Repaired?

Uncategorized

Yes, knocked-out teeth can be repaired, and the sooner you can get to Dr.Nechupadam Dental, Marine Drive, the better. Knocked-out teeth with the highest chances of being saved are those seen by the dentist and returned to their socket within one hour of being knocked out. If a tooth has been knocked out, gently rinse any debris from the root and attempt to place it back into the socket. If that’s not possible, hold it in the mouth on the way to the dentist. If all else fails, keep the tooth in milk until you get to the dentist’s.

Even if your tooth can’t be saved, you haven’t necessarily lost your smile. Due to advances in dentistry, a dental implant a freestanding artificial tooth can now be anchored directly onto your jawbone, and with a porcelain crown attached, to aid in biting, chewing, and for esthetic reasons.
