Frequently Asked Questions About Emergency Dental Care

What qualifies as a dental emergency?

A dental emergency includes severe toothaches, knocked-out teeth, abscesses, or any situation causing significant pain or swelling.

How do I know if I need immediate care?

If you're experiencing intense pain, bleeding, or any symptoms that affect your ability to eat or sleep comfortably, seek immediate assistance.

Can I prevent dental emergencies?

While not all emergencies are preventable, maintaining good oral hygiene and regular check-ups can minimize risks. Wearing mouthguards during sports activities also helps protect your teeth from injury.

What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?

If a tooth is knocked out, try to place it back in its socket without touching the root. If this isn't possible, keep it moist in milk or saliva and contact us immediately for assistance.

What if I have a broken filling or crown?

A broken filling or crown requires prompt attention. Avoid eating hard foods and contact us as soon as possible for repair options.
