What do you do if and when your child’s (permanent) tooth comes out of the socket?
✅ Remember that the tooth CAN be saved, so don’t throw it away or leave it behind
✅ TIME is key here. Visit a dentist with the tooth within the first one hour (the sooner the better)
✅ Carry the tooth in one of these mediums, depending on what’s available:
🔹 MILK
🔹 Egg whites
🔹 Coconut milk
🔹 ORS
🔹 Gatorade
🔹 Coconut water
As always, prevention is better than cure, but if something like this happens, visit your dentist ASAP!
⚠️ This is applicable to PERMANENT/ADULT teeth only
⚠️ Milk/baby teeth aren’t put back in
