Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
- Tooth Pain or Abscess: Severe tooth pain or an abscessed tooth (infection around the tooth root) requires immediate attention to relieve discomfort and prevent the infection from spreading.
- Knocked-Out Tooth: If you’ve lost a tooth due to injury, act fast. In some cases, a knocked-out tooth can be successfully re-implanted if treated within an hour of the accident.
- Broken or Chipped Tooth: If a tooth is broken or chipped, we can provide temporary relief and restore the tooth’s function and appearance with bonding, crowns, or other treatments.
- Lost Filling or Crown: A lost filling or crown can expose the sensitive part of your tooth, causing discomfort or further damage. We can replace or temporarily fix the filling or crown to relieve pain.
- Jaw Pain or Injury: Injuries to the jaw, whether from trauma or other causes, can lead to significant pain. We provide immediate care to manage swelling, align the jaw, and reduce discomfort.
What to Do in a Dental Emergency
Knowing what to do during a dental emergency can make a significant difference in the outcome. Here’s what you should do for common dental emergencies:
Tooth Pain
Rinse your mouth with warm water and use over-the-counter pain relief until you can see a dentist.
1
Knocked-Out Tooth
Rinse the tooth gently, avoid touching the root, and try to place it back in the socket. If you can’t, store it in milk or saline solution and bring it to the dentist immediately.
2
Broken or Chipped Tooth
Save any pieces of the broken tooth and use a cold compress to reduce swelling until you can visit the dentist.
3
Lost Filling or Crown
If a filling or crown comes loose, try to temporarily seal the area with dental wax or sugar-free gum until you can see a dentist.
4
Jaw Injury
Apply ice to the affected area to reduce swelling and seek immediate care for evaluation.
