COMMON DENTAL EMERGENCIES

HAVING A TOOTH OR CROWN KNOCKED OUT

Natural or replacement teeth that are knocked out or that become loose after an accidental impact should be dealt with promptly. We suggest following these steps:

Handle the tooth by the crown versus the roots
Rinse the missing tooth beneath gently flowing water to wash away any debris
If possible, place the tooth/crown carefully and gently back into the socket to prevent the roots from drying out. It mustn’t dry out.
Alternately, place the tooth in a small container, fill it with milk until it is submerged, and bring it with you to your emergency care appointment.
Place a clean cloth or gauze in the socket and press down gently to control bleeding.

HAVING A BROKEN TOOTH

Tooth fractures are a common emergency. You should complete the following if you have fractured any of your teeth:

It’s a good idea to call us even if you think a fracture is minimal. More serious fractures may result in the loss of teeth if not treated.

HAVING AN INFECTED TOOTH

More often than not pain is caused by an infected tooth. Symptoms include:

Severely infected teeth may need further treatment than just antibiotic therapy, and it’s a good idea to catch it early. Pain doesn’t always have an obvious source so let our Hamilton emergency dental team help you uncover the problem behind that pain.

HAVING A SOFT TISSUE INJURY

Lacerations inside the mouth or the gums are considered soft tissue injuries. The tissue inside your mouth contains a large network of tiny blood vessels called capillaries so your mouth will bleed quite a bit. Follow these dental care tips before making your way to our emergency dental practice:

Even if your teeth aren’t involved in the injury, give us a call and we’ll determine whether our dental practice or the local emergency room is better suited to treat your injury.
