1. Remain calm while
you try to locate the tooth.
2. Pick up the tooth
gently, being careful to handle it by its crown and not by its roots.
3. Gently remove any
debris from the tooth. Do not scrub or use any cleaning agents on the
tooth.
4. Look for fractures
in the roots. If there are no fractures, carefully replace the
tooth in its socket or keep it moist in a glass of milk or water.
If no milk or water is available, place the tooth in the mouth next to
the cheek.
5. See a dentist
immediately, preferably within 30 minutes.
