Severe pain, dental swelling, a knocked-out tooth, a fractured tooth, or a lost restoration are common urgent concerns. Life-threatening symptoms require 911.

Hold the tooth by the crown, avoid touching the root, gently rinse if dirty, and keep it moist in milk or saliva while you contact a dentist as soon as possible.
