Dental emergencies get worse by the hour. The sooner you act, the better the outcome.
✓
The periodontal ligament cells on the root surface start dying within minutes of the tooth leaving the socket — the best window for reimplantation is 30 to 60 minutes, and after that the odds of the tooth holding long-term drop quickly.
✓
How the tooth is handled in the car matters as much as getting here — touching only the crown, keeping it moist in cold milk, saliva, or saline, and never scrubbing the root is what protects the cells the tooth needs to reattach.
✓
Reimplantation is only step one — a flexible splint has to be placed for 1–2 weeks and root canal therapy started within about two weeks to prevent pulp death and inflammatory root resorption, per IADT trauma guidelines.

What's Included in Your Knocked Out Tooth Treatment — Waco
Here's what to expect when you visit Rodeo Dental in Waco, TX for knocked out tooth treatment:
1.
Saline lavage of PDL fibers
The avulsed tooth is rinsed briefly with saline to clear debris while preserving the periodontal ligament cells on the root surface — no scrubbing, no tap water.
2.
Alveolar socket fracture inspection
The clinician examines and irrigates the socket under local anesthetic, checking for alveolar fracture before the tooth goes back in.
3.
Radiographic seating confirmation
The tooth is seated back into its original position in the socket and verified clinically and radiographically.
4.
Flexible wire-composite splint bonding
A composite-wire splint is bonded to the reimplanted tooth and one or two adjacent teeth for 1–2 weeks to stabilize it during early healing.
5.
IADT-guided endodontic initiation
Endodontic therapy is initiated at 7–14 days to prevent pulp necrosis and inflammatory root resorption, following current IADT guidelines.
6.
Chlorhexidine 0.12% and resorption recall imaging
Splint removal at 7–14 days, a two-week soft-food diet, chlorhexidine 0.12% rinse, and follow-up radiographs at 3, 6, and 12 months to monitor for resorption or ankylosis.

Our office sits at 5201 Bosque Blvd, Suite 200, just off Highway 84 and minutes from Richland Mall, Hillcrest Baptist, and the Valley Mills corridor — so families from China Spring, Woodway, Hewitt, and Bellmead can get here fast.
