Knocked out a baby tooth—what should I do?

Hi everyone... I apologize if I’m starting a thread that already exists or something similar—I honestly couldn't find one after looking
.
So, here’s the situation: my three-year-old daughter had a fall on the stairs and somehow managed to knock out her entire baby tooth—an incisor 😢😢... We put the tooth in some milk (is there actually any truth to that old wives' tale?) but we don't have any way to get to a dentist right this second... Is there any way to replace a tooth like that, or are we stuck just waiting for the permanent one to grow in? Given she's only three, that could feel like an eternity
.
Has anyone else dealt with something like this? What did you end up doing?

Thanks

Here is the protocol:

If the tooth is intact, rinse it under running water and attempt to reposition it back into the socket. Then, head straight to the nearest dentist or an emergency dental clinic. If you can't get it back in—say, if a child isn't cooperating—rinse the tooth and place it in milk or saliva (inside the cheek) before rushing to the dentist. Success depends on timing; the shorter the window between the injury and replantation, the better the prognosis. Ideally, you want to act within 20 minutes; anything beyond that is risky. In your specific situation, though, you might as well toss the tooth and just wait for a new one to come in. There isn't much else to be done.

Is that actually the standard protocol for everyone, or is it just specifically for baby teeth?

Well, that’s pretty much how it works regardless... parents with little ones can actually pick up these specialized storage solutions, little vials filled with specific liquids where you can keep a knocked-out tooth safe until you can get to the dentist—though even then, you really want to move as fast as possible to save it...
