Recognizing Dental Emergencies
So, what counts as a dental emergency? Here are some common situations that require prompt attention:
Broken Tooth or Crown: Whether from an accidental fall or biting into something hard, broken teeth and crowns can be painful and pose a risk for further damage or infection.
Cut Lip from Trauma: Any soft tissue injuries, especially those causing excessive bleeding or swelling, need immediate care.
Dislodged Tooth: A tooth that has fallen out, whether due to trauma or other reasons, requires swift action.
Chipped Tooth: Even minor chips can cause significant pain and expose the tooth to potential infection.
Persistent Pain: Ongoing or escalating pain in your teeth or gums should never be ignored.
Swelling: Swollen gums or cheeks can indicate infections, abscesses, or other serious conditions.
Remember, if something feels abnormal and seems to be worsening, it's better to be safe and reach out. Our skilled team is on standby to guide you through the next steps.
Immediate Response to Dental Emergencies
While we'll always strive to attend to your needs swiftly, there are a few steps you can take to alleviate discomfort or prevent further damage:
Knocked-out Tooth: Gently clean the tooth without touching the root. If possible, try to place it back into the socket. If that isn't feasible, keep it moist in milk or a tooth preservation product.
Chipped or Broken Teeth: Rinse your mouth with warm water and apply a cold compress to reduce any swelling.
Toothaches: Gently clean around the affected area. Ensure there's no trapped food. Refrain from applying aspirin directly to the tooth or gums.
Swelling or Abscesses: Rinse your mouth with a mild saltwater solution multiple times a day to reduce pain and draw out the pus.
Soft Tissue Injuries: Clean the area with warm water and apply a cold compress.

Frequently Asked
Questions
What is considered a dental emergency?
A dental emergency can range from a broken or chipped tooth to persistent pain, swelling, or a tooth that's been knocked out. If you're experiencing significant discomfort or notice anything abnormal with your oral health, it's best to seek professional guidance immediately.
I've knocked out a tooth. What should I do?
First, remain calm. Gently rinse the tooth without touching its root. If possible, reinsert it into the socket. If you can't, keep it moist in milk or a tooth preservation product. Call an emergency dentist, like the team at 905 Dental, as soon as possible.
Can a chipped or broken tooth wait for a regular dental appointment?
While minor chips may not seem urgent, it's always best to consult an emergency dentist to prevent potential infections or further damage. Immediate attention can also reduce pain and improve the chances of a successful repair.
I'm experiencing swelling in my gums. Is this an emergency?
Swelling can indicate an infection or abscess, which needs urgent care. Don't delay—contact an emergency dental service like 905 Dental to get the issue assessed.
What is the difference between an emergency dentist and the emergency room at a hospital?
While emergency rooms can address general injuries, an emergency dentist specializes in oral health. For dental-specific issues, an emergency dentist will have the specialized tools, training, and experience to provide the best care.
How soon can I see an emergency dentist at 905 Dental?
905 Dental prioritizes emergency cases, ensuring patients receive immediate attention, whether they're existing patients or new. If in doubt, give us a call, and we'll guide you on the next steps.
What treatments are available for dental emergencies at 905 Dental?
905 Dental offers a comprehensive range of emergency services, from pain relief and abscess treatment to chipped tooth repair, crowns, root canals, and tooth extractions. Our goal is swift, effective, and compassionate care.
Can dental emergencies be prevented?
While not all dental emergencies can be avoided, regular dental checkups, wearing protective gear during sports, and avoiding hard candies or using teeth as tools can reduce the risk of injuries.
I have severe tooth pain. Should I wait to see if it goes away?
Persistent or severe tooth pain should never be ignored. It can be a sign of underlying issues, such as infections or cavities. Call an emergency dentist immediately for advice and potential treatment.
How can I prepare for potential dental emergencies?
Maintain regular dental check-ups to catch potential issues early. Additionally, keep a dental emergency kit at home, including our contact information, a small container with a lid, gauze, and handkerchief.
