Create a dental emergency kit

Dental emergencies happen. While you’re traveling. During exercise. At home or work.

If an emergency does happen, it’s important to find a dentist right away. If that’s not possible, a well-stocked dental emergency kit can help you deal with pain, bleeding and other problems until you can see a dental professional.

Everything you need for your kit can be purchased at your local pharmacy or grocery store. Here’s what you’ll need:

Cotton swabs

Use to clean the area or as applicators

Cotton balls

Use to help control bleeding

Dental floss

Use to dislodge food particles stuck between teeth

Dental mirror

Use to view inside of mouth

Latex gloves

Wear to assist someone other than yourself (use vinyl gloves if allergic to latex)

Dental wax

Use to coat sharp edges of braces wires or other orthodontia

Salt

Combine with water to rinse out mouth if cheek, gums or tongue are injured (also can use a pinch in water to transport a knocked-out tooth to the dentist

Cold compress

Use to reduce swelling

Arrange everything in an airtight container and keep in a handy place where you can quickly get to it if you need to.
