Save-A-Tooth

​Save-A-Tooth is a device that preserves and protects the tooth on the way to the dentist. It uses Hanks Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) to preserve the tooth for up to 24 hours. With Save-A-Tooth, a patient has the time they need to get proper care with a 91% viability rate. 1) Find the tooth and pick it up by the enamel, also known as the chewing surface. Be careful to not touch the root! The root is extremely fragile and damaging it will lower the chances of a successful replantation. 2) Place the tooth carefully into Save-A-Tooth, root side down, and closer the lid. 3) Carry the Save-A-Tooth to a dentist or emergency room.
