Know the Signs of a Dental Emergency
A medical emergency can strike at any time, but it can be difficult to determine when you need immediate help. You should seek emergency dental care as soon as possible if you notice any of the following symptoms:
- Infection: Swollen cheeks and gums may be a sign of infection around the root of a tooth, also known as an abscess. These infections are also often accompanied by pain and must be treated with antibiotics.
- Severe Toothache: A toothache can be a symptom of deep decay or infected pulp in the tooth, but can also be caused by a damaged filling or a crack in the tooth. Depending on the cause, treatment can vary from root canal therapy to filling replacement.
- Lost Crown or Filling: When a crown or filling is lost, bacteria and foreign particles can get into the damaged tooth’s structure and cause more decay until the filling or crown is replaced.
- Direct Injuries: When a tooth is chipped, cracked, or broken, prompt treatment is necessary to save the tooth and minimize pain. Emergency care is especially important when a tooth bleeds, becomes loose, or is knocked out of its socket, as treatment within one to two hours is necessary to save the tooth.
- Damaged Braces, Retainers, or Dental Bridges: Exposed metal can cut the sensitive parts of your mouth such as your gums and tongue. Neglecting to fix these damaged structural elements could also cause your teeth to shift positions in your mouth, undoing the work done by installing them in the first place.
If you experience extreme dental pain or swelling in your mouth, it is vital to seek care as soon as possible. Whether you have been with us before or you are a new patient, call our office to schedule an evaluation.
