A knocked-out tooth should be picked up by the chewing surface and not by the root. If dirty, the tooth should be gently washed in warm water without scrubbing or drying it with a cloth. The tooth should then be ideally placed in milk and kept moist at all times. As the next step, one should visit the dentist immediately. Visit our clinic for timely help.
