Yes, you can save
it! Knocked out teeth can be replaced if you take the
right steps to preserve the root of the tooth, and get to our
dentist in time. Using technologically advanced digital x-rays and
microscopes, the endodontist removes the injured pulp, and your
tooth is then filled with a rubber based, FDA-approved material
called gutta-percha. After a successful tooth-replacement
procedure, your tooth will function just like other teeth, but will
no longer be connected to your nervous system. Coastal
Endodontics offers emergency appointments for these and
other procedures, so contact us as soon as possible.
