FAQ About Emergency Dentistry
What qualifies as a dental emergency?
A dental emergency is any situation that requires immediate attention to alleviate severe pain, stop ongoing bleeding, or save a tooth. Common dental emergencies include incidents like a knocked-out tooth, severe toothache, broken teeth, cracked teeth, a lost dental filling, a loose crown, an abscess, facial swelling, or any dental injury that causes bleeding and severe pain.
My concern isn’t painful or serious. What should I do?
Call our Nashville office to see if you need treatment. Some dental issues seem minor but can quickly escalate if left untreated. For example, a small chip in a tooth might not cause immediate pain, but it can lead to sensitivity or a root canal infection if not addressed promptly.
What should I do If I knock out a tooth?
Retrieve the tooth if possible, handling it by the crown, not the root. Rinse it gently without scrubbing and try to place it back in the socket. If you can't, keep it moist by placing it in a glass of milk. Then, call us immediately. With quick action, we may be able to save the tooth. If you can’t get to an emergency dentist right away, visit an emergency room for temporary care.
How can I alleviate a toothache before my appointment?
While you wait for your appointment, you can try rinsing your mouth with warm water and gently flossing to remove any trapped food particles. Over-the-counter pain relievers can provide temporary relief. You can also try applying a cold compress to your cheek near the affected area to address swelling and pain. A saltwater rinse (1/2 teaspoon of salt in a cup of warm water) can help reduce inflammation and kill bacteria.
