Here are some of our team\u2019s thoughts about common emergencies:<\/strong> Toothache?<\/strong> Rinse with warm water and be sure nothing is lodged. Apply an ice pack if needed to reduce the swelling, and call us as soon as possible. We probably need to take a look. Chipped & Broken Tooth?<\/strong> Although it may sound sort of gross, save the pieces of the tooth if you can. Apply gauze pressure if you\u2019re bleeding.\u00a0See us as soon as you can.<\/strong><\/a> A Knocked Out Tooth?<\/strong> \u201cTime is of the essence\u201d in trying to save a tooth.
