#KNOCKED-OUT TOOTH

                                   

Hey all! I am going to share something about

"How to save your knocked-out tooth?" 

    *If your tooth is knocked out, Then place it in milk, as milk contains proteins it will help the tissues in your tooth to stay alive till you reach your dentist. 

    *Ligaments of periodontal tissues stay alive in the root of the tooth only for 15 minutes after the tooth is knocked out. you should hold that knocked-out tooth only on the crown surface(chewing area) and not on the root as it has live tissues in it and also it lasts for only 15 minutes. 

    *If the tooth is reinserted within that 15 minutes, it can regenerate and reestablish attachment between ligament and the tooth. This will save your teeth for sure. Do follow during any injury occurs. Hope this is useful for u !
