What to Do In Dental Emergencies?

Knocked-Out Teeth 

If a tooth comes off loose or is knocked out, it should get taken care of immediately. We suggest following these steps:

  • Handle the tooth by the crown area
  • Rinse the missing tooth gently and wash away any debris
  • If possible, place the tooth or crown carefully back into the socket to prevent the roots from drying out
  • Alternately, place the tooth in a small milk container and bring it to your emergency appointment to make sure your tooth doesn't get misplaced. 
  • Place clean gauze in the socket and press down gently to stop the bleeding.
  • Seek emergency dental care at the earliest

Broken Tooth

Broken teeth also referred to as tooth fractures, are a typical emergency. If you have broken or chipped any of your teeth, then:

  • Rinse your mouth thoroughly with clean water
  • Place an ice compress against the fractured tooth to help reduce swelling
  • Place any broken or chipped  pieces of tooth in a small container of milk and bring them to our office

Infected Tooth

More often, a toothache is the result of an infected tooth. Symptoms include:

  • Tooth pain that may quickly become severe
  • Swelling and bleeding of the gums around the affected tooth
  • Pus or abscess on the gums

If you notice the above symptoms, schedule an immediate appointment for professional care.

Soft Tissue Injury

Follow these measures before making your way to our emergency dental services:

  • If you have bleeding, rinse your mouth with saltwater
  • Place gauze on the affected area and apply gentle pressure to control bleeding
  • Schedule an emergency appointment

Loose Adult Teeth

If you have a loose adult tooth, take these precautions:

  • Avoid chewing ice or using dental floss as it could make the tooth fall out
  • If the tooth has come out, keep it in a milk container and bring it to our office.
