Trouble breathing or swallowing, or severe spreading facial swelling, needs emergency medical care. Call 911 in the US when emergency help is needed. A suspected abscess needs urgent dental assessment even if pain temporarily improves.
A knocked-out tooth
A knocked-out permanent tooth needs immediate dental attention. Handle the crown, keep the tooth moist and contact a dentist right away. Do not put a knocked-out baby tooth back into its socket.
