What are some common dental emergencies?
Some common dental emergencies include:
Toothache
Various factors can cause toothache, such as tooth decay and gum disease. if your toothache consists of mild discomfort, you can probably wait to see your regular dentist. However, if your toothache is causing severe or unbearable pain, it can become difficult to eat, speak, sleep, or function normally. It’s important to be evaluated for a toothache sooner rather than later. A toothache can be a sign of infection in the tooth or surrounding gum and may cause serious complications if left untreated. If you have severe tooth pain, call the Express Dentist hotline at 1-844-593-0591 and we will help you find an emergency dentist nearby who can get to the bottom of what’s going on.
Cracked or broken tooth
Teeth grinding or jaw clenching, tooth decay, or dental trauma can lead to a broken or cracked tooth. If left untreated, it can lead to complications such as pain and sensitivity, infection, tooth decay, gum disease, tooth loss, and abscess. That’s why it’s important to get prompt dental care if you suspect a cracked tooth.
Knocked out tooth
Accidents, fights, and sports injuries can cause a tooth to be knocked out from your mouth. This is a dental emergency and should be treated as soon as possible, ideally within 30-60 minutes of the injury.
Abscessed tooth
When an infection spreads to the root of a tooth, it is called a tooth abscess or dental abscess. Symptoms may include severe pain, swelling, and fever. A 24-hour dentist can provide treatments for an abscessed tooth such as incision and drainage, root canal treatment, extraction of the affected tooth, and antibiotics. 1
Broken braces
Braces wires that become loose or break can cause pain and injuries in the mouth if it causes the braces to shift. The wire can also poke the soft tissues of the mouth, such as the gums, cheeks, or tongue, causing symptoms such as bleeding, irritation, and mouth sores. It’s important to call your orthodontist as soon as possible for an appointment. If you cannot get in to see your orthodontist anytime soon, Express Dentist can help you find a dental clinic nearby where they can provide emergency dental care. Ignoring broken braces can cause serious dental problems, including but not limited to prolonged orthodontic treatment.
