Tips For Your Dental Emergency


We understand that experience discomfort or a sudden injury may cause you to feel nervous or scared. By scheduling an emergency appointment, you will already find yourself well on your way toward feeling better. However, as you prepare to visit us, we suggest you consider the following suggestions for your most successful emergency visit:

    Take a deep breath and remain calm.
    If you break a tooth, try to collect the pieces. Protect them in a sealed container or plastic bag and bring them with you.
    If you dislodge a tooth, carefully rinse it under lukewarm water. Do not remove attached tissue. Try to place the tooth back in the empty socket without exerting any force. If the tooth does not slip back into place, preserve the tooth in a container filled with milk or salt water. Bring the container with you to your visit.
    If you suffer extreme discomfort, place an ice pack on your face to ease swelling and pain.
    Take over-the-counter pain medication to address swelling or severe discomfort.
    If you experience bleeding, place pressure on the affected area with the use of clean fabric, such as cotton gauze, until it subsides.
    Ask a friend to drive you to our office if you cannot concentrate on driving.
