What Should I Do During a Dental Emergency?
Toothache:
Rinse your mouth with warm water and gently floss around the affected tooth to remove any debris. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the gums.
Knocked-Out Tooth:
Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root. If possible, place it back into the socket or keep it in milk and call our office immediately. Quick treatment can improve the chances of saving the tooth.
Broken or Chipped Tooth:
Save any broken pieces if possible and rinse your mouth with warm water. Contact our office promptly for evaluation and treatment.
Swelling or Infection:
Swelling, especially when accompanied by pain or fever, may indicate a serious infection that requires immediate attention.
Don’t Wait to Seek Treatment
Ignoring dental pain or trauma can lead to more serious complications and costly treatment. Our experienced team will diagnose the problem, relieve your discomfort, and recommend the best solution to restore your oral health.
