When Should You Call an Emergency Dentist?
Dental problems can become uncomfortable quickly. If you are unsure whether your situation is urgent, it is better to call and speak with our team.
You should contact us if you have:
- Sudden or severe tooth pain
- A broken, cracked, or chipped tooth
- Swelling around the gum, jaw, or face
- A knocked-out tooth
- A loose adult tooth
- Bleeding after a dental injury
- A lost filling, crown, or bridge
- Pain when biting or chewing
- Signs of infection, such as swelling, pus, or fever
If you have facial swelling affecting breathing or swallowing, heavy bleeding, or trauma involving the head or jaw, seek urgent medical care or attend an emergency department.
Toothache and Dental Pain
Tooth pain can happen for many reasons, including decay, infection, cracked teeth, gum problems, or pressure around a tooth. During your appointment, your dentist will examine the area and may take X-rays to identify the cause.
Treatment depends on the diagnosis. This may involve cleaning the area, placing a filling, treating an infection, repairing a damaged tooth, or discussing further dental care if required.
The aim is to understand the source of the pain and provide care that suits your condition.
Broken, Chipped, or Cracked Tooth
A broken or cracked tooth should be checked as soon as possible, especially if there is pain, sensitivity, or sharp edges cutting the tongue or cheek.
Depending on the damage, treatment may include smoothing the tooth, placing a filling, bonding the tooth, protecting it with a crown, or discussing other options if the tooth is badly affected.
Avoid chewing on the damaged side until your dentist has assessed it.
Knocked-Out or Loose Adult Tooth
A knocked-out adult tooth needs urgent attention. If possible, hold the tooth by the crown, not the root. If it is dirty, rinse it gently with milk or saline. Do not scrub the root.
Place the tooth in milk or keep it moist and call us immediately for advice.
A loose adult tooth after injury should also be assessed quickly. Your dentist will check the tooth, surrounding gums, and bite before recommending the next step.
Swelling, Infection, or Dental Abscess
Swelling around a tooth or gum may be linked to infection and should not be ignored. You may notice pain, a bad taste, pressure, pus, or swelling in the jaw or face.
At Ayar Dental, we will assess the area and explain suitable treatment options. This may involve draining infection where appropriate, medication if clinically required, root canal treatment, extraction, or referral depending on the severity of the condition.
If swelling is spreading or you feel unwell, seek urgent medical attention.
Lost Filling, Crown, or Bridge
If a filling, crown, or bridge comes loose, the exposed tooth may become sensitive or vulnerable to further damage. Keep the restoration if you still have it and avoid chewing on that side.
Your dentist will check the tooth and restoration before deciding whether it can be repaired, re-cemented, replaced, or treated another way.
What Happens at Your Emergency Dental Appointment?
Your emergency visit is focused on finding the cause of the problem and helping you understand your treatment options.
During your appointment, we may:
- Ask about your symptoms and how the problem started
- Examine the affected tooth, gum, or injury site
- Take digital X-rays if needed
- Check your bite and surrounding teeth
- Explain the likely cause of the issue
- Discuss suitable treatment options and fees
- Provide treatment where clinically appropriate
Some emergency treatments can be completed during the visit. In other cases, temporary care may be provided first, followed by further treatment if needed.
