Avulsed (Knocked-Out) Teeth in Darien, CT

A knocked-out tooth can be one of the most alarming dental emergencies for both children and parents. At Lil’ Dente Pediatric Dentistry, we respond quickly to give your child the best chance of saving their smile. Whether it’s a baby tooth or a permanent one, our expert pediatric team provides gentle, urgent care in a calm and reassuring environment.

Why Should I Choose Pediatric Avulsed Tooth Treatment?

Time is crucial when a tooth is knocked out—especially if it’s a permanent one. The sooner your child receives care, ideally within 30 minutes, the better the chance of successfully reimplanting and saving the tooth. If reimplantation isn’t possible, we provide restorative solutions to support healthy oral development and appearance.

Our team is prepared to handle dental trauma with speed and compassion, minimizing pain and anxiety while working toward the best possible outcome for your child.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my child need a replacement if the tooth can't be saved?

Yes—if it’s a permanent tooth, we may recommend a space maintainer or future restorative options to protect oral health.

How long does reimplantation take?

The procedure is often quick, but follow-up visits are needed to monitor healing and tooth stability.

Is the treatment painful?

We prioritize comfort with sedation and numbing when needed. Most children feel relief quickly.

Can baby teeth be reimplanted?

No—reimplanting baby teeth is not recommended. However, we will examine the area to ensure no damage has occurred to the surrounding teeth or gums.

What should I do if my child knocks out a tooth?

Handle the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse gently, and store it in milk or saliva. Call us immediately.
