Common dental emergencies our dentist can treat include:
- Severe toothaches: Persistent tooth pain can signal a serious problem, such as an infection or an abscess, which requires urgent treatment to prevent further complications.
- Lost or damaged dental restorations: If you have lost a filling or crown, it is important to replace it quickly to protect the tooth from further damage and infection.
- Injuries to the mouth’s soft tissues: Cuts, tears or other injuries to the tongue, cheeks, lips or gums need immediate care to minimize the risk of infection and promote proper healing.
- Cracked or broken teeth: Teeth that are cracked or broken due to trauma or biting on something hard should be treated as soon as possible to prevent further damage and relieve pain.
- Chipped teeth: Even minor chips can affect the appearance and function of your teeth. Prompt repair can restore your smile and prevent additional damage.
- Knocked-out teeth: If a tooth has been knocked out, it can sometimes be re-implanted if you act quickly. Keep the tooth moist in milk or a saline solution and visit our office immediately.
