Common Dental Emergencies to Receive Professional Care

So many of us take our teeth for granted — that is until they start causing problems. While some dental issues are minor, others deserve immediate care. Here are some of the most common types of dental emergencies:

Toothache: Severe tooth decay can quickly turn into an infection. When this occurs, you might experience severe pain and swelling in the affected tooth and its surrounding gums. It’s important to seek treatment because tooth infections can spread to other parts of your body if bacteria enter your bloodstream.

Broken or cracked tooth: While a tooth crack may seem like a minor problem, it’s actually putting you at risk for infection. Cracked or broken teeth are usually the result of a sports injury, but can sometimes occur when biting down on something hard.

Lose/knocked out teeth: Common from a fall or from a blow to the mouth. The good news is that if you contact the office quickly enough, we can help save a loose or damaged tooth from extraction.

Loss of a crown: Sometimes a temporary crown will become loose when you’re waiting for a permanent dental crown. If this happens, try to make sure you hold onto the temporary crown, so that you won’t need an entirely new one. You can attempt to put the crown back in place with a small amount of toothpaste or dental cement.

Bleeding: Bleeding can be caused by other problems such as an infection, advanced gum disease or severe tooth decay. Having emergency dental care done helps identify the cause of your bleeding and the course of treatment.

What to Do in an Emergency:
Open on Saturday Over the Weekend

The most important thing to remember in a dental emergency is to remain calm. Call our dentistry immediately.
While you’re waiting for your dental emergency appointment, here are some things you can do at home to alleviate pain and save a lost tooth:

Use a mixture of salt and water to relieve irritation and cleanse swelling in your mouth.

If a tooth is knocked out, retrieve it and preserve it in a glass of milk until you can get to dental attention.

Use a cold compress to help reduce swelling, numb a painful area, and apply pressure to stop bleeding.

Preventing Dental Emergencies

Even with the advent of sports mouthguards, dental emergencies are inevitable. If you are not sure your problem qualifies as an emergency, please follow this advice: If it hurts, it’s an emergency.

Sometimes even oral problems that seem small can affect the other tissues inside the teeth and mouth. Immediate emergency treatment will improve the odds of saving an injured or damaged tooth.

The same is true of a lost filling or crown. Even if you don’t have any symptoms, the tooth has lost its support and it could easily become damaged.
