Can't swipe up on Apple Watch Series 7

Sometimes swipe up does not work, requires restarting the watch. Is there some other way to access Control Center? Is this a known bug that will be fixed?

Thanks for the tips! Force restart does work! However... (vent alert)... this is a new watch and it has happened twice since I bought it a few weeks ago. Never had this problem in over 5 years on my previous Apple watches. It is very annoying to reboot the watch right when I need one of its essential features. Would be great if Apple could fix this issue and/or provide another way to access the Control Center. Thanks for listening.
