Common Dental Emergencies & First Aid
Severe Toothache
Rinse with warm salt water. Take ibuprofen (not aspirin). Apply cold compress to cheek. Do NOT place aspirin on the gum.
Broken or Chipped Tooth
Save any pieces. Rinse mouth with warm water. Apply gauze for 10 minutes if bleeding. Cover sharp edges with wax or sugar-free gum. See a dentist same day.
Knocked-Out Tooth
Time is critical. Pick up by the crown, not the root. Rinse gently with milk. Try to place back in socket. If you can’t, keep in milk. Get to a dentist within 30 minutes.
Lost Filling or Crown
Try to slip a crown back on with denture adhesive. Cover a lost filling with sugar-free gum. See a dentist within 24-48 hours.
Dental Abscess
Rinse with salt water. Do NOT pop it. See a dentist urgently — abscesses can spread.
When to See an Emergency Dentist Immediately
- Severe pain not responding to painkillers
