Common Causes Of Knocked-Out Tooth

Understanding what causes a tooth to get knocked out can help you prevent future incidents. Common causes include:

  • Accidents and Trauma
  • Sports Injuries
  • Facial Impact
  • Severe Gum Disease

What to Do Immediately After a Tooth Gets Knocked Out

Book your emergency dental appointment now or arrange an online dental consultation for expert advice from an emergency dentist in Cardiff. If your tooth has been completely knocked out, here are the steps to take before you reach the clinic:

  • Stay calm and find the tooth.
  • Hold it by the crown (the white part) — never touch the root.
  • If it’s dirty, rinse it gently with milk or saline. Do not scrub or use soap.
  • Try to place it back in the socket carefully if possible.
  • If that’s not an option, store the tooth in milk or keep it between your cheek and gum.
  • Visit an emergency dentist within 30 to 60 minutes — this is the best window for saving the tooth.

Why Fast Action Matters

A knocked-out tooth can often be replanted successfully if treated quickly. Waiting too long can lead to permanent tooth loss, infection, and long-term dental problems. That’s why we offer walk-in and same-day emergency appointments in Cardiff.

Emergency Dental Treatment Options For Knocked-Out Tooth

  • Tooth Reimplantation
  • If the tooth is still in good condition and you’re seen quickly, we can try to reinsert and stabilise it using a splint.
  • Root Canal Therapy
  • After reimplantation, a root canal may be needed to protect the tooth long-term and prevent infection.
  • Tooth Replacement Options
  • If saving the tooth isn’t possible, don’t worry. We offer modern tooth replacement options like:
  • Dental Implants
  • Bridges
  • Partial Dentures
