Did you know that our teeth are constantly moving? Even if we had braces when we were younger, if we didn’t wear our retainers, our teeth will move right back to where they started.

A lot of people come to the dentist with the misconception that once they have a crown or a filling placed, they will never have to replace it and/or need a new restoration on that specific tooth. A good crown or filling should last at least 8-10 years before needing replaced however many factors affect the longevity of a restoration.

Accidents happen and when they involve your teeth it can be very scary. If you should ever knock out an adult tooth the first thing you should do locate the tooth. If the tooth is intact and not covered in debris you can try and place the tooth back in the socket. Once back in the socket try to keep your mouth closed and hold the tooth in place with your tongue. This may not be very comfortable but it is the best way to help the tooth survive.
