What is considered a dental emergency?
Despite meticulous oral care, unexpected dental emergencies can occur. Unfortunately, these emergencies often result in intense pain and discomfort. Hence, it's vital to seek immediate treatment at the first sign of any problem. Our clinic offers a calm and comfortable setting for patients of all ages, guaranteeing efficient and timely treatment.
What is the significance of seeking treatment for a dental emergency?
Not receiving prompt and appropriate care can quickly worsen a dental emergency. A seemingly small issue can quickly turn into a major problem. In some instances, infections may arise, necessitating additional treatment beyond the initial emergency. That's why we highly advise seeking immediate and correct treatment without hesitation.
What are some typical dental emergencies?
Every day, we handle a variety of dental emergencies. Therefore, we highly recommend that you schedule an appointment as soon as you notice any problems. The emergencies we often deal with include:
- Suffering from a severe toothache and intense pain.
- Treating abscesses and infections.
- Handling cracked or broken teeth.
- Fixing broken crowns and fillings.
- Repairing or replacing damaged or lost appliances such as dentures or night guards.
What can you anticipate during dental emergency treatment?
We'll start the process by asking about the current problem you're experiencing to determine if an x-ray is needed. If it is, we'll carry out the x-ray procedure quickly and smoothly. By examining the x-ray and your teeth, we can pinpoint the root of the issue. We'll then provide the necessary treatment during your visit to stop any further damage. If there's an active infection at the time of your appointment, we may give you antibiotics to treat it.
