What You Can Do Now

Before you’re seen by a periodontist, there are a few ways that you can alleviate your discomfort and aid in your recovery. You can take a non-prescription pain reliever if needed. If you’ve had a tooth knocked out or come loose, replace the tooth back in the socket if you can and secure it there until you get help. If that’s not possible, put the tooth in a small container of milk to keep it moist. Rinse it off with water if it’s dirty (e.g., it fell on the ground) but make sure not to dislodge any tissue that may still be attached. If we’re able to see you soon enough, we might be able to put the tooth back into place.
