Spring break should be about fun, not worrying about a dental emergency. If a tooth gets chipped or knocked out during sports or travel, quick action can make a big difference. If a permanent tooth is knocked out, gently pick it up by the crown (the white part), lightly rinse it if needed, and try to place it back in the socket or keep it moist in milk or saliva. For a cracked or chipped tooth, save any pieces you can and avoid chewing on that side until you are seen. Our emergency dentists across Palm Beach and Broward are experienced in handling these situations with calm, clear guidance and digital imaging to quickly see what is going on and explain your options in plain English. If your child has a dental injury this spring break, do not wait. Visit one of our Smile Perfection Dental & Orthodontics locations so our team can assess the tooth, ease discomfort, and help protect their smile.
