What are common dental emergencies?

Some of the most common dental emergencies are broken or knocked-out teeth. However, several other common conditions also require the attention of an emergency dentist. For example, you should contact Dr. Ilyabayev for emergency dental care if you:

• Lose a dental crown
• Sustain a blow to your face that causes severe jaw pain
• Severe tooth pain or sensitivity
• Severe swelling in your gums
• Unstoppable bleeding

Tooth pain or sensitivity to pressure or temperature can indicate that you have infected teeth or gums or an oral abscess. Getting prompt dental treatment can prevent your condition and your pain from getting worse.

What should I do if a tooth is knocked out or broken?

If you knock out a tooth and you act quickly, you may be able to preserve the tooth. First, find the tooth and pick it up, but only touch the crown of the tooth.

If your tooth is dirty, gently rinse it with plain water. If possible, place the tooth back in its socket or nestle it between your cheek and gum. If you can’t put the tooth back into your mouth, put it into a small, sealed container of milk or an emergency tooth preservation kit.

Don’t store your tooth in tap water, as the root can’t tolerate exposure to the chemicals in tap water for an extended time. When your tooth is secured, make your way to Dr. Ilyabayev’s office.

Call the office and let the team know that you’ve lost a tooth and are on your way. They can give you instructions and advice to increase your chances of saving your tooth.
