What should I do in an emergent dental situation?
Here are recommendations for some of the most common dental emergencies we see:
A Knocked out Tooth.
Make sure to contact us as soon as possible to schedule an emergency dental appointment. Time is of the essence when it comes to saving a tooth that has been struck out, so the sooner you contact us, the better. If you have located the tooth that was knocked out, keep it in your mouth or in a cup of cold milk to prevent it from drying out, and bring it with you to the emergency dental. Pick up the tooth by the crown, not the roots, and avoid excessive washing or handling. Take some paracetamol if you are experiencing agony.
A Chipped Tooth
If your tooth sustains a fissure or chip as a result of trauma or an injury, you may require an emergency filling, crown, or extraction. Your emergency dentist should be able to file down any irregular edges and use tooth-colored fillings to replace any missing tooth structure. If you are experiencing pain, you can take paracetamol and rinse your mouth with saline water.
An abscess
If your face, gums, or mouth are swollen, this could be the result of a dental abscess. This is an infection of the tooth interior that requires immediate emergency dental treatment. Take paracetamol for any pain and remain seated or standing until you reach the emergency dentist.
