Grasp the tooth by the crown (this is the part that is visible above the gum) and clean the tooth with saliva in your mouth or let the person who the tooth belongs to do this. If this is not possible, rinse the tooth with milk. Under no circumstances should the tooth dry out. If the tooth has been dry for more than half an hour, the chance that it can be successfully replaced is minimal.
CAUTION: Do not bring the tooth in contact with water! The living cells of the root membrane often cannot survive on water.
The best thing to do is to put the tooth back in the jaw by yourself or to tuck the tooth into the cheek crease of the mouth to keep the tooth moist. If that is not possible, the tooth can also be stored in a cup of milk. Then contact us directly on 040-3111915.
