Steps to Take Before Your Visit
For a knocked-out tooth: Gently rinse with water (do not scrub) and try to place it back in the socket. If not possible, store it in milk or a tooth preservation solution.
For a broken or chipped tooth: Rinse with warm water and apply a cold compress.
For tooth pain: Rinse with warm salt water, avoid chewing on the affected side, and consider over-the-counter pain relief temporarily.
