What services does an emergency dentist offer?
Dental emergencies can sometimes be life-threatening and serious enough to make you very sick. However, with the right treatment given at the right time, danger can be averted. A pressing cosmetic concern like a chipped or broken tooth also needs a speedy remedy, especially when it can cause distress and self-consciousness.
Severe Pain
Toothaches can come on suddenly or build up over time. Either way, when you are in pain, it requires immediate medical action. Your dentist will first give you painkillers, anti-inflammatory drugs, and antibiotics to treat the pain and infection. Depending on the extent of tooth decay and damage, you will be recommended a filling, root canal, or extraction. In rare cases, it requires emergency tooth extraction or wisdom tooth removal, which has to be carried out within 24-48 hours.
Expert evaluation is essential to identify the dangers of toothache, especially in the case of dental abscess. Untreated decay and broken fillings can lead to infection. Dental trauma and periodontitis also cause pain that requires emergency care.
An exposed nerve is also a very painful condition that requires emergency care. Desensitising medication or fluoride gels are used to treat the pain and gum disease that is causing the exposed nerve.
Accident
A knocked-out tooth can be salvaged if you hurry. Put the tooth in a small glass of milk or keep in saliva, or hold it in your cheek to prevent it drying out. You must see a dentist within an hour. It could be reattached to the root. Chipped teeth can also be fixed the same way if you preserve the fragment in milk or saliva. However, it is not essential to hold onto chipped pieces or broken teeth, especially if you can’t get to a dentist in time. Broken teeth can be rebuilt using bonding, veneers, or crowns.
Dislodged/loosened crown
If a crown comes loose, get to a dentist soon to have it reattached. Hold on to the crown if you still have it. You can use OTC dental cement to reattach the crown temporarily, but a dentist needs to fix it permanently for it to be fully functional.
Broken wires and braces
When braces break, it exposes sharp edges and can cause damage to your gums and cheeks. Your dentist will be able to either fix the broken braces or get you a new one.
Dental abscess
A dental abscess is a puss-filled bacterial infection caused by tooth decay and gum disease. It can spread to other regions like the soft tissue and the jaw bone, eventually leading to brain or blood infection. The abscess should be drained by a dentist as soon as possible.
