## When Every Minute Counts
Dental emergencies can happen anytime—on the school playground, during a football game, or even at home. When they do, knowing what to do in the first few minutes can save a tooth. At TAG Dental Clinic in Johor Bahru, we’re here for you 24/7 with guidance, immediate care, and compassionate support.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through dental first aid basics every parent, teacher, and caregiver in JB should know.
### Common Dental Emergencies in Johor Bahru

This is one of the most urgent dental emergencies, especially for permanent teeth.
**What to do:**
- Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root)

- Try to reinsert it into the socket
- If not possible, store in milk or saliva
- Reach TAG Dental Clinic immediately: 📞 [+6011-1111 0660](tel:+6011-11110660)
#### 2. Broken or Chipped Tooth
**First aid steps:**
- Rinse mouth with warm water
- Apply cold compress to reduce swelling
- Save any broken pieces
- Visit a dentist within the day
#### 3. Toothache
**First aid steps:**
- Rinse with warm salt water
- Floss gently to remove debris
- Do NOT place aspirin directly on the gum
- Call for a dental evaluation
#### 4. Object Stuck Between Teeth

- Avoid sharp objects like pins
#### 5. Soft Tissue Injuries (Lips, Cheeks, Tongue)
