  • What is a dental emergency?

    Dental emergencies can come in various forms, such as sudden and severe toothaches, accidents that chip or crack a tooth, damaged or loose restorations, or lost or damaged teeth. According to statistics, around 22 percent of people have experienced dental or oral pain within the last six months. To determine if your situation is a dental emergency, ask yourself the following questions:

    • -Are you in severe pain or experiencing significant swelling?
    • Is your toothache unbearable and not improving?
    • Have you lost a tooth, or is it loose?
    • Do you have swelling in your face or cheeks accompanied by a toothache?
    • Are you experiencing extreme tooth sensitivity?
    • Are you experiencing persistent bleeding from the mouth?
    • Has your jaw been injured?

    Any dental issue that requires immediate treatment to stop bleeding, alleviate severe pain, or save a tooth is considered an emergency. This also applies to severe infections that can be life-threatening and require immediate attention from a dental professional.

  • What is not a dental emergency?

    If your dental issue can be resolved without seeing your dentist for a few days, it is not considered a dental emergency. For instance, a chipped or cracked tooth is only an emergency if it is causing you pain or if it has caused any trauma inside your mouth. Similarly, you can wait a few days to see your dentist if you have lost a tooth or filling.

  • What’s the best way to handle a dental emergency?

    In a dental emergency, contacting your dentist as soon as possible is best. However, if the emergency is exceptionally severe, you should immediately go to the emergency room.

    Depending on the nature of the dental emergency, there are some home remedies that you can try to help ease your pain and alleviate the situation. You can dissolve a teaspoon of salt in a mug of warm water and use it as a mouthwash. If your tooth has been knocked out, place it in a glass of milk until you can see your dentist. You can also try flossing to eliminate gum pressure, using a cold compress on the swelling or painful area, rinsing with diluted Hydrogen Peroxide to kill bacteria, or taking over-the-counter pain medication to alleviate pain.
