Knocked-Out Tooth

A knocked-out tooth is a time-critical emergency. Call us immediately on (02) 9389 3333. Handle the tooth by the crown only never the root. Store it in milk or saline and get to our clinic within 30 minutes to maximise the likelihood of successful reimplantation.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency - Step by Step

Step 1 – Call Us Immediately

Call Bondi Junction (02) 9389 3333 or North Sydney (02) 9460 3566 right away. Describe your symptoms so we can prioritise your emergency appointment and prepare for your arrival.

Step 2 – Manage Pain While You Wait

Take over-the-counter pain relief such as ibuprofen or paracetamol. Apply a cold compress to the outside of your face to reduce swelling. Do not place aspirin directly on the gum or tooth.

Step 3 – Knocked-Out Tooth – Act Within 30 Minutes

Pick up the tooth by the crown only never touch the root. Rinse gently with milk or saline. Try to reinsert it into the socket if possible. If not, store it in milk and call us immediately. Time is critical every minute matters.

Step 4 – Broken Tooth

Rinse your mouth with warm salt water. Save any broken pieces. Avoid chewing on that side of your mouth. Call us for a same-day emergency appointment at our Sydney dental clinic.

Step 5 – Dental Abscess or Facial Swelling
