Before you get here
A tooth was knocked out
Pick it up by the top, not the root. Rinse it gently, then keep it in milk or tucked in your cheek. Come in within an hour if you can.
My face is swollen
Call us right away. If you have trouble breathing or swallowing, go to the emergency room first.
A filling fell out
Keep the area clean and avoid chewing on that side. A little sugar-free gum can cover a sharp edge until we see you.
