Dental emergencies can happen anytime and anywhere. Knowing how to handle these situations promptly and efficiently is crucial for your oral health. At our practice, we understand the urgency of such situations and are here to help you every step of the way.
It’s important to identify whether your dental issue requires immediate attention or if it can wait until regular office hours. Here are some common signs of a dental emergency:
Severe Toothache
If you’re experiencing intense, persistent tooth pain, it could indicate an underlying issue that needs immediate attention. Don’t ignore it—contact us immediately.
Knocked-Out Tooth
If a tooth is knocked out due to an accident or injury, time is of the essence. Rinse the tooth gently with water, trying not to touch the root, and place it back into its socket if possible. If that’s not feasible, keep the tooth in a glass of milk or saliva and get to our clinic as soon as possible.
Broken or Fractured Tooth
A broken or fractured tooth can be excruciating and may cause further damage if left untreated. Rinse your mouth with warm water and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. Contact us immediately for an emergency dental appointment.
