Knocked Out Tooth Emergency Tulsa

Don’t delay—if you’ve lost a tooth due to trauma, call us Emergency Dental Boise dental team now. We’re available around the clock to provide fast, expert care and help preserve your natural smile.

Why Prompt Treatment Matters for Knocked-Out Teeth

When a permanent tooth is knocked out (also known as an avulsed tooth), the blood vessels and nerves inside the tooth are severed. Although those cannot be repaired, the tooth can often be re-implanted successfully if treated quickly and handled correctly.

The best chance for saving the tooth is within the first 30 minutes to 1 hour. After that, the likelihood of successful reattachment and long-term survival decreases significantly.

Our emergency dental team in Tulsa is equipped with the tools and expertise to re-implant and stabilize the tooth, perform follow-up root canal therapy if needed, and restore your smile with minimal downtime.

Knocked-Out Baby Tooth vs. Permanent Tooth

  • Baby (Primary) Teeth

    If a baby tooth is knocked out, it should not be replanted. Attempting to do so may damage the developing permanent tooth underneath. Instead, contact us for an exam to ensure there are no additional injuries or complications.

  • Permanent Teeth

    All permanent teeth should be evaluated for possible re-implantation, even if it has been more than an hour since the injury.

What Happens After Re-Implantation?

Most knocked-out teeth require root canal therapy within 1–2 weeks after re-implantation. This procedure removes damaged pulp tissue and prevents infection while preserving the outer structure of the tooth.


In some cases—especially with younger patients—natural healing can occur without the need for immediate root canal therapy. Our team will evaluate and recommend the best path forward based on age, injury severity, and healing progress.

If the Tooth Can’t Be Saved

If we determine that re-implantation isn’t possible, there are still options to restore your smile and function, including:

  • Dental Implants – The most natural-looking and long-lasting tooth replacement option.

  • Fixed Bridges – A prosthetic anchored to adjacent teeth.

  • Removable Partial Dentures – A cost-effective option for temporary or permanent use.

Our Tulsa dental team will walk you through your options and help you choose the one that fits your needs, lifestyle, and budget.

Preventing Knocked-Out Teeth

While accidents can’t always be avoided, there are steps you can take to reduce the risk of dental trauma:

  • Wear a custom sports mouthguard during athletic activities

  • Avoid using your teeth to open packages or bite hard objects

  • Supervise young children closely during play

  • Get regular dental checkups to identify weak or compromised teeth

Ask our team about custom-fit mouthguards for adults and kids—especially if you or your child is active in contact sports.
