Knocked-out Permanent Tooth

What is a Knocked-out Permanent Tooth?

At Smile On Westbury in Westbury, we understand that dental emergencies can happen at any time, and a knocked-out permanent tooth is one such urgent situation. When a permanent tooth is completely knocked out, immediate action is crucial to increase the chances of successful reimplantation. Our dental practice offers emergency care for knocked-out permanent teeth, providing prompt and expert treatment to save your tooth and preserve your oral health.


A knocked-out permanent tooth, also known as an avulsed tooth, occurs when the entire tooth is dislodged from its socket due to trauma or injury. This can happen during accidents, sports-related activities, or falls. When a permanent tooth is knocked out, it is essential to seek immediate dental care to maximize the chances of saving the tooth.

Emergency Dental Care

How Smile On Westbury can help

Saving the Tooth

Prompt action is crucial when a permanent tooth is knocked out. By seeking emergency dental care at Smile On Westbury in Westbury, we can increase the likelihood of saving the tooth. Our dental professionals will handle the tooth with care, taking appropriate steps to preserve it and facilitate successful reimplantation.

Preventing Further Damage

A knocked-out tooth is vulnerable to damage and dehydration. Seeking immediate dental care helps prevent further damage to the tooth and increases the chances of successful reimplantation. Our dental team in Westbury will carefully handle the tooth, avoiding unnecessary trauma and providing the necessary measures to preserve its viability.

Reimplantation and Stabilization

Reimplantation involves placing the knocked-out tooth back into its socket. Time is of the essence in this process, as the longer the tooth remains outside the socket, the lower the chances of successful reimplantation. Our dental professionals will gently reposition the tooth and stabilize it to ensure proper alignment and support during the healing process.

Preserving Natural Smile and Function

Saving a knocked-out permanent tooth helps preserve your natural smile and oral function. Reimplantation allows you to maintain a complete and functional dentition, preventing the need for more extensive and costly tooth replacement options such as dental implants or bridges.

Supporting Bone, Gum Tissue, and Long-term Oral Health

The presence of a natural tooth in the jaw helps maintain the health and integrity of the surrounding bone and gum tissue. By saving a knocked-out permanent tooth through emergency care, we can prevent bone loss and gum recession, preserving the overall oral health and stability of the adjacent teeth. Our compassionate dental team will also address your concerns, alleviate pain, and guide you through the necessary steps to restore your oral health.
