Emergency Dentistry

If you knock out a tooth, it's essential to act quickly to save the tooth. Rinse the tooth gently with water, being careful not to remove any tissue fragments. Try to reinsert the tooth into the socket and hold it in place with a clean cloth or gauze. If you can't reinsert the tooth, place it in a milk or saltwater container and bring it to your emergency dental appointment.

If you crack or break a tooth, rinse your mouth with warm water and apply a cold compress to the affected area to reduce swelling. If you're experiencing pain, take over-the-counter pain medication and avoid eating or drinking hot or cold foods and beverages until you can see a dental professional.

If you're experiencing a severe toothache, rinse your mouth with warm water and floss to remove any food particles causing the pain. If the pain persists, take over-the-counter pain medication and contact your dental professional for an emergency appointment.

An abscessed tooth is a serious dental emergency that requires immediate attention. Symptoms of an abscessed tooth include severe toothache, swelling in the face or neck, fever, and difficulty swallowing or breathing. If you suspect an abscessed tooth, contact your dental professional immediately for an emergency appointment.

If you lose a filling or crown, rinse your mouth with warm water and apply a small amount of clove oil to the affected area to reduce pain. Contact your dental professional for an emergency appointment to replace the filling or crown.

If you experience an injury to the mouth or teeth, rinse your mouth with warm water and apply a cold compress to the affected area to reduce swelling. If you're experiencing pain, take over-the-counter pain medication and contact your dental professional for an emergency appointment.
