Welcome to Our Emergency Dental Care Information Center

​

What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?

Dental emergencies can include:

  • Severe Tooth Pain: Persistent or throbbing toothache that disrupts daily activities.

  • Knocked-Out Tooth: Immediate care can sometimes save a knocked-out tooth.

  • Broken or Fractured Tooth: Cracked or broken teeth can cause pain and require prompt treatment.

  • Loose or Dislodged Crown or Filling: This can expose sensitive tooth structures and cause discomfort.

  • Abscess or Infection: Swelling around the tooth or gums accompanied by pain or fever.

 

Immediate Steps for Dental Emergencies

If you experience a dental emergency, take these steps while seeking professional help:

  • Toothache: Rinse your mouth with warm water and gently floss around the tooth to remove any debris. Avoid placing aspirin or painkillers directly on the gums, as this can damage tissues.

  • Knocked-Out Tooth: Handle the tooth by the crown (top part), not the root. Rinse it gently with water if dirty, but do not scrub. Try to reinsert it into the socket if possible, or keep it moist by placing it in milk or saliva until you can see a dentist.

  • Broken Tooth: Rinse your mouth with warm water and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. Save any broken tooth fragments and bring them to your dentist.
