The Most Common Dental Emergencies

Many dental emergencies involve a sudden injury, such as chipping or knocking out a tooth after taking a sudden blow to the mouth. Other emergencies will be the ultimate result of an infection that can worsen over time. Our dentists and team members are trained to deal with many different scenarios and restore your oral health. But before your appointment, you need to be able to manage your condition on your own. Keep this advice in mind for taking control of common emergencies.

  • Toothaches

  • Chipped Tooth

  • Cracked Tooth

  • Sensitivity to Hot & Cold

  • Knocked-Out Tooth

  • Lost Filling or Crown

  • Broken Denture

  • Loose Tooth

Understanding the Cost of Dental Emergencies

It’s impossible to give a general estimate for a dental emergency without performing an examination first. Some patients will only need a prescription, but others could end up needing crowns, dental implants, extractions, or other procedures. We’ll make sure that you have an accurate idea of the final price before moving forward with the treatment. Our dental office is in-network with many major insurance companies, and we can offer financing options to patients who need them.

Dental Emergency FAQ’s

Are you still worried about what you would do if a dental emergency were to strike? Even after reading all of the information laid out above, you might still have a question or two. For your convenience, your emergency dentist has decided to answer some of our most frequently asked questions about emergency dentistry down below.

For extremely severe dental emergencies, such as a fractured jaw, profuse bleeding that won’t slow down, or swelling that makes it difficult to breathe or swallow, you should visit your nearest emergency room before scheduling an appointment with us. These issues could all be considered life-threatening, and as such, you should seek medical care immediately. Once you’ve received the treatment you need, you can then book a same-day emergency appointment with us so that we can handle all of your oral healthcare needs.

The best way to minimize damage from dental emergencies is to be prepared. You can do so by creating an emergency kit with the following items included:

  • Bottle of ibuprofen
  • Latex-free gloves
  • Gauze pads
  • Saline solution
  • Small container with a secure lid
  • OTC pain relievers

In order to be as prepared as possible, make a few of these kits and store them in places where you spend a lot of time, such as your kitchen drawer, your car, or even your desk at work.

Toothaches

Is my toothache a dental emergency? While not every toothache is considered a dental emergency, you’ll want to still visit our team just in case. This could sometimes be an indication that something is wrong with your smile. A toothache will qualify as an emergency if you experience the following:

How you should handle a toothache: You should first give us a call so that we understand the situation and can schedule an appointment. Afterward, try flossing around the pained tooth to remove any bothersome debris. Rinse your mouth with saltwater to alleviate inflammation and fight off infection. Place a cold compress on the outside of your mouth to reduce discomfort and swelling. Take over-the-counter pain medications like ibuprofen. Avoid using aspirin directly on your gums or teeth.

How we treat toothaches: Your treatment will depend on the root cause of your toothache. If it’s due to periodontal infection, then we’ll likely provide gum disease therapy. If your discomfort is due to an infection, then we can perform a root canal to save your tooth. But if it’s beyond repair, then our team may consider extracting it to preserve your oral health. We’ll be sure to assess your situation and determine the best way to relieve your pain and save your smile.

Chipped Tooth

Is a chipped tooth a dental emergency? Most chipped teeth don’t require immediate attention. However, you’ll still want to get it treated as soon as you can since a damaged tooth will be more vulnerable to future injury and infection later on.

How you should handle a chipped tooth: Try rinsing with warm water to clear out any tiny pieces of the tooth from your mouth. This way you can keep the area clean and bacteria-free. Avoid using the chipped tooth for biting or chewing anything. Feel free to cover it up with dental wax or sugarless gum if it feels sensitive.

How we treat chipped teeth: Although a chipped tooth may seem unsettling at first, it’s quite simple to treat. In most cases, we can easily repair and improve your condition with dental bonding. But if a front tooth is chipped and you’re worried about your appearance, you can consider getting veneers for a more comprehensive and longer-lasting solution.

Cracked Tooth

Is a cracked tooth a dental emergency? A cracked tooth is typically considered a dental emergency, as it will be more vulnerable to further damage, bacteria, and infection. However, if the injury is minor, then it may be able to wait a few days to get treated if necessary. That said, remember that very small cracks in your smile can be difficult to notice. If you experience any sensitivity or pain while chewing, especially after taking a blow to the face, then you might have a hidden crack that’ll require treatment.

How you should handle a cracked tooth: Firstly, gently rinse your mouth with water to remove any broken fragments of the tooth, clearing away bacteria in the process. Try covering up your tooth with dental wax or sugar-free gum if it feels sensitive. Keep away from chewing on that side of your mouth until you can see us.

How we treat cracked teeth: If the crack in your tooth is small, then we may be able to simply repair it with dental bonding. For more severe cracks, you may require protecting and strengthening it with a dental crown. In rare cases, a tooth that is beyond repair may need to be extracted and replaced altogether.
