What Is Emergency Dentistry?
Emergency dentistry refers to dental care provided promptly to treat urgent problems such as pain, injury, or infection. That could be because you've got a toothache coming on out of the blue, or you've had some kind of injury or infection, or maybe you've knocked a tooth out. Our emergency dentist will diagnose the problem and provide prompt treatment to relieve pain and protect your tooth whenever possible.
Emergency dental care can be a whole range of treatments, depending on what's needed. Treatment may include replacing a lost filling, restoring a tooth that has lost a crown, treating severe tooth pain, or performing a root canal to remove infection. We aim to make sure the care we provide is always about keeping you comfortable, and safe, and getting your mouth in a healthy state again.
Dental emergencies can occur at any time, and delaying treatment may lead to more serious complications. We follow the guidelines set by the
Canadian Dental Association, which makes it plain just how important it is to get some professional help as soon as you start to feel like something is wrong.
Some people might find themselves in the following situations: a tooth has been knocked out, or they've got loose teeth after a whack, or swelling is out of control, or a tooth has got a painful crack. When any of this happens, it's best to get in touch with an emergency dentist as quickly as possible - because that's usually the best way to save the tooth and limit any damage in the long run.
Our team has the training and equipment necessary to address dental emergencies promptly. Our main goal is to get you sorted out as quickly and smoothly as we can, relieve any pain, and get your smile back on track.
Benefits of Emergency Dental Care
Seeing an emergency dentist as soon as possible can significantly improve outcomes for patients experiencing sudden dental problems. It's a way of looking after your oral health and preventing more problems from arising.
Relieve the pain right away
A big plus of emergency dental treatment is that you can get pain relief right away. Our emergency dentist works to figure out what's behind the pain and get it sorted - to take the edge off the discomfort.
Prevent further problems from arising
If you get sorted out quickly, you can avoid problems getting even worse. Addressing issues like infection, fractures, or decay right away can help keep the tooth and the surrounding tissues from getting into even more trouble.
Save a tooth that's gone missing or got damaged
If you act quickly, it's sometimes possible to save a tooth that's been knocked out or badly damaged. Our emergency dentistry treatments are designed to help bring back a healthy smile whenever possible.
Feel better in your own skin
Knowing that help is just around the corner when a dental emergency pops up can be a great relief. Our team is here to give you advice, help, and care when you need it most.
Emergency Dental Care Procedure
When you come to see us for emergency dentistry, our team's main focus is on sorting out the issue right away and getting your oral health back on track. We try to do that in a few key steps.
Step 1: Take a look at things
First, we have a good look at the affected area and talk to you about what's going on. Our dentist will have a close-up look at the tooth, the gums, and the surrounding tissue to try to figure out what's causing the problem.
Step 2: Work out what's going on
After we've had a good look, we'll figure out what's actually causing the emergency. That might be infection, a crack, an injury, or some kind of damage to the root of the tooth.
Step 3: Get the pain under control
Next, we focus on sorting out the pain as quickly as possible. Treatment may include medication for pain relief, cleaning the affected area, or stabilizing the tooth.
Step 4: Fix the problem
Depending on what's needed, treatment might include things like filling a tooth, placing a crown, doing a root canal to get rid of the infection, or just generally dealing with the damage caused by the emergency. Our main aim is to get your tooth and your mouth back in a healthy state again.
Step 5: Give you some after-care advice
After treatment, we provide detailed instructions to help you care for the affected area while it heals. This might include using warm water to rinse, maybe applying a cold compress or just avoiding putting any pressure on the affected area.
Our team is always here to answer any questions you've got and provide extra help if things just don't seem to be getting any better. Don't think that emergency dental care just ends after you've had treatment - we continue to support patients all the way through their recovery.
