If you are not a patient with us, we will of course help you with your complaint, but you must register as a new patient.
Urgency outside our business hours?
Then call the Oral Care Clinic at OLVG West in Amsterdam.
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.
