A knocked-out permanent tooth is a true dental emergency — and time is everything. The best chance of saving the tooth comes when it is replanted immediately, ideally within the first 15–20 minutes. After about an hour outside the mouth, the chances of survival drop dramatically.
If it happens, pick up the tooth by the crown (the white chewing part), never the root. If dirty, give it a quick rinse with clean water — but don’t scrub it. Try to place it back gently into the socket. If that’s not possible, keep it moist in milk, saline, or inside the cheek. Never let it dry out.
Do not attempt to replant a baby tooth. For adults, rush to a dentist right away. The tooth will be stabilized with a splint, antibiotics may be given, and root canal treatment will often be needed later. Quick action makes the difference between saving and losing the tooth.
