What are the
signs of a dental emergency?
Recognizing the signs of a
dental emergency can help you know when to seek immediate treatment.
Below are different signs that suggest you should visit the dentist
for an emergency.
1. Severe Tooth Pain:
Persistent and severe tooth pain is a clear sign that something is
wrong and in need of attention. Toothaches can be caused by tooth
decay, infection, abscess, or even a cracked tooth. Intense pain can
make it difficult to go about your daily tasks so don't delay in
seeking professional help.
2. Knocked-Out Tooth:
It is crucial to act quickly if a tooth has fallen out. A
knocked-out tooth has the highest chance of being saved if you can
get to the dentist within the first hour. As soon as the tooth is
knocked out, rinse it gently with water (don’t scrub) and store it
in milk or saliva until you are with the dentist.
3. Broken or Fractured Tooth:
A broken or fractured tooth can expose sensitive nerves, increasing
chances of infection. Until you can get prompt dental care, treat
your broken or fractured tooth by rinsing your mouth with warm water
and applying a cold cloth to the affected area to reduce swelling.
4. Swelling or Abscess:
Swelling in the face, gums, or jaw along with a bump on the gums may
indicate an abscessed tooth. Dental abscesses are serious infections
that require immediate treatment to prevent the spread of infection
to other parts of the body. Call the dentist immediately.
5. Excessive Bleeding:
Excessive and uncontrollable bleeding from the mouth for whatever
reason requires immediate emergency dental care. Sustained bleeding
may indicate damage to blood vessels or inadequate post-operative
care. Seek help right away.
