Acute Dental Emergency First-Aid

Severe pain, knocked-out teeth, or sudden trauma require swift action to preserve natural teeth and prevent systemic spread.

1Knocked-Out Permanent Tooth: Replant in socket immediately or keep in cold cow milk. Rush to dentist within 60 minutes.
2Severe Throbbing Toothache: Rinse with warm salt water. Take anti-inflammatories. Never apply aspirin directly to gums.
3Broken or Chipped Tooth: Save tooth fragments in milk. Apply a cold compress to cheek to reduce swelling.
4Facial Swelling / Fever: Immediate medical attention required if swelling affects breathing or swallowing.
If breathing or vision is impaired, proceed immediately to the nearest Emergency Room.
