Accidents and dental emergencies can happen at any time, and we are here and always ready to help. In an emergency, contact our office right away. If you lose a permanent tooth, try to keep it moist while you get to the dentist. You can try placing it back into the socket if that is not painful, or between your cheek and gums. If that is not possible, placing it in milk can greatly improve the chances of saving the tooth.
Lost tooth is part of Emergency Dentistry at Virginia Dental Care, located at 915 N Quincy St in Arlington, VA.
