If the tooth root hasn’t been fractured and it is treated quickly, you can easily re-implant the dog’s tooth that has been knocked out.

Pick up the tooth by the crown without touching the root, and place it in a container of cool milk. This will prevent the delicate tissues around the root from drying out while you rush the dog to the vet.

After the tooth has been replaced in the jaw, the pulp will probably die, but root-canal treatment can be given when the tooth is secure in the jaw again.
