If your child has one or more permanent teeth knocked out, please follow these directions:
- Hold the tooth by the crown—not the root—and rinse it off with water (cover the drain first)
- Gently replace the tooth in the socket. Time is of the essence and the most important factor is to get the tooth back into the socket as quickly as possible. However, if you feel you cannot securely place your child's tooth in the socket and there is a possibility that your child may swallow the tooth, we recommend that you place the tooth in milk for transportation to our office.
- Call our office immediately for an emergency appointment. If it is after normal business hours, call one of our office numbers (303-799-1872 or 303-758-6057), leave a verbal message including your name, your child's name, and your phone number then push the numbers 91 on your touch-tone phone before you hang up. This will page the on call doctor to call you back. Please be sure to remove any blocks you have on incoming calls.
To speak to the doctor on call:
- Call either 303-799-1872 or 303-758-6057
- Leave a message with your name, your child's name, and your phone number
- Push the numbers 91 on your touch-tone phone before you hang up.
- Please be sure to remove any blocks you have on incoming calls
The doctor on call will be paged and will return your call.
