Emergency Dentistry

What

Is Emergency Dentistry?

Emergency dentistry is dental care dedicated to unexpected dental issues or emergencies. Emergency dentists provide this dental care and usually work round the clock every day of the week to ensure they tend to all dental emergencies. Examples of these dental emergencies include a knocked out or fractured tooth, lost restorations, and severe tooth pain. Any dental issue that can wait until the next day to solve is not a dental emergency.

01
Prompt Attention and Evaluation

The emergency dental team will give you prompt attention the moment you arrive at the dental clinic. The dentist will begin an evaluation right away. This evaluation will involve questions about how you feel, your pain level, and any other symptoms you notice. The dentist may also take X-rays and conduct other diagnostic tests before moving to the next step.

02
Pain Management and Other Diagnostic Tests

The dentist will administer string painkillers to help with the pain. They might also administer a local anesthetic to help with the same. Once the pain subsides, the dentist will conduct other diagnostic tests to help create an effective treatment plan for your dental emergency.

03
Immediate Treatment

With a treatment plan in place, the dentist will move swiftly to provide the treatment described in the treatment plan. The most common treatments for dental emergencies include root canals, tooth extractions, and dental fillings, among others. The dentist will proceed with the treatment to restore your dental health.

04
Patient Education and Follow-Up Care

Once treatment concludes, the dentist will guide you on how to avoid future dental emergencies and act in case of one. Take these instructions to heart and follow them keenly to preserve your dental health. The dentist might also schedule follow-up treatments, depending on your dental emergency.
