Most practices listed above accept major dental insurance plans and many offer CareCredit financing.

Pick up the tooth by the crown (not the root), rinse it gently with water, and keep it moist — ideally in a glass of milk or between your cheek and gum. Call an emergency dentist in Columbia, MD immediately. Reimplantation is most successful within 30–60 minutes of the injury.

When in doubt, call a Columbia emergency dentist — most practices will advise you over the phone whether you need immediate care.
