If it does not happen there are some steps to follow which can help greatly. 1. Rinse the tooth off if it is dirty then reinsert it and call your dentist. 2. If this is not possible place the tooth in a liquid.  The best choice would be a product such as Save A Tooth.  If that is not available milk or contact lense solution will also work but don\u2019t use water.  3. Get to your dentist ideally within 1 hr.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An avulsed or \u201cknocked out \u201c tooth is one of the most devastating events that can happen to a tooth.
