Tooth out! Now what?
Follow these steps:

1

Grasp the tooth by the top-side (do not touch the root) and rinse it under cold water for 10 seconds. Do not dry off.

2

Try to put the tooth back in place. It does not matter if the tooth does not fit perfectly. If that fails, keep it in a cup with your own saliva.

3

Bite down on a cotton ball or gauze to hold the tooth in place or do so by hand and see a dentist immediately

4

Is it a baby tooth? Children up to age 5 often have only baby teeth.
