Phone triage to (956) 884-4840 before El Centro traffic
Call on your way to 910 Guadalupe Suite A so the front desk can time your arrival against the Juarez-Lincoln Bridge backup and have a splint tray staged before you sit down. We coach you on milk-vs-cheek transport over the phone in Spanish or English.

Why Knocked Out Tooth Treatment Can't Wait — Laredo
Dental emergencies get worse by the hour. The sooner you act, the better the outcome.
✓
Periodontal ligament cells on the root surface start losing viability inside the first 30–60 minutes out of the socket — every block you drive past Guadalupe without calling narrows the window to save the tooth.
✓
Without early reimplantation and staged root canal therapy at the 7–14 day mark, the pulp can go necrotic and trigger inflammatory root resorption that makes the tooth unsalvageable.
✓
Handling the tooth incorrectly — scrubbing the root, rinsing under tap water, or carrying it dry — destroys the ligament cells the reimplant depends on, so phone triage before you arrive genuinely changes the outcome.

What's Included in Your Knocked Out Tooth Treatment — Laredo
Here's what to expect when you visit Rodeo Dental in Laredo, TX for knocked out tooth treatment:
1.
Crown-only saline rinse of the avulsed tooth
The tooth is rinsed briefly with saline to clear debris while leaving the periodontal ligament cells on the root intact — no scrubbing, no tap water, handled by the crown only.
2.
Alveolar socket irrigation and fracture screen
The socket is irrigated and evaluated for alveolar wall fracture before the tooth is reseated, so a compromised socket is caught before reimplantation.
3.
Anesthetized reseating to original socket depth
Under local anesthetic, the tooth is repositioned into its original position in the alveolar socket, confirming axial alignment before the splint goes on.
4.
Bonded composite-wire splint for 1–2 weeks
A flexible composite-wire splint is bonded from the reimplanted tooth to one or two neighbors for 1–2 weeks of initial-healing stabilization, per IADT guidance.
5.
Staged root canal start at the 7–14 day IADT mark
Endodontic therapy is initiated 7–14 days after reimplantation to head off pulp necrosis and inflammatory root resorption.
6.
Chlorhexidine 0.12% and 3/6/12-month resorption films
Twice-daily 0.12% chlorhexidine rinse with a two-week soft-food diet, plus follow-up radiographs at 3, 6, and 12 months to monitor for replacement resorption or ankylosis.
30-60 minutes

Trusted by Laredo Families to Care for Their Smiles
Families and kids in Laredo count on us for gentle, quality care.
Dr. Jia Ming Shi leads care at the Guadalupe Street office and handles avulsion cases chairside rather than sending patients out to a specialist across town. That matters for a knocked-out tooth: the window to save the [periodontal](/services/restorative/gum-disease-treatment/guadalupe-laredo) ligament is short, and a referral chain can burn the reimplantation window before you are ever seated. Dr. Shi evaluates the socket, rinses the tooth with saline without disturbing the root fibers, and reseats it in its original position under local anesthetic in the same visit.
Frequently Asked Questions About Knocked Out Tooth Treatment
Where exactly is the Guadalupe Street office and how do I get in with a knocked-out tooth?
Can I come in on a Saturday if the tooth gets knocked out over the weekend?
Yes — Guadalupe Street is open Saturdays from 9 AM to 4 PM. Monday through Friday we are open 10 AM to 7 PM. Call before arriving so our team can pre-stage the socket irrigation and splint materials.
I don't have dental insurance — can I still be seen for an avulsion?
Yes. Our front desk will walk you through self-pay pricing and in-house payment plan options over the phone at (956) 884-4840 before you arrive, so there are no surprise numbers when you sit down. We see uninsured neighbors every day and will not turn you away for an urgent avulsion.
Do I need to bring the tooth, and how should I carry it?
Yes, bring it. Hold it by the crown only — never the root. If you cannot reimplant it yourself, drop it in cold milk or tuck it in your cheek (adults only) on the way. Do not scrub it or rinse it under tap water.

What makes our Laredo office unique for knocked out tooth treatment
Knocked Out Tooth Treatment for Laredo Families
Our Guadalupe Street office sits at 910 Guadalupe Suite A in the 78040 corridor, a short walk from San Agustín Plaza and the Laredo Center For The Arts, and minutes from the Juarez-Lincoln Bridge traffic that pushes through El Centro each afternoon. When a tooth gets knocked out on a job site off Santa Ursula or during a weekend game at Father Charles McNaboe Park, getting to a chair fast matters — periodontal ligament cells start dying inside the first hour.
We serve a heavily bilingual patient base here; most of our callers open in Spanish, and the front desk handles avulsion triage the same way whether you call in English or Spanish. Saturday hours run 9 AM to 4 PM so a Friday-night injury does not have to wait until Monday.
For uninsured neighbors in the service and construction trades, we walk through self-pay pricing and payment plan options on the phone before you get here.
