What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?

Dental emergencies come in many forms, from mild toothache to more severe situations that require immediate attention. Recognizing the signs of an emergency is crucial for getting the help you need promptly. Here’s a quick guide to what qualifies as a dental emergency:

‍

• Severe Toothache: Intense pain that doesn’t subside with over-the-counter pain medication. This could signal an infection, cavity, or damage to the tooth’s pulp.
• Broken or Chipped Teeth: Accidents happen, and sometimes that means cracked or broken teeth. This can be painful and, if left untreated, may cause further damage.
• Knocked-Out Teeth: Losing a tooth due to trauma is a common emergency, especially in sports or accidents. If managed correctly, it’s possible to save the tooth.
• Abscessed Teeth: A pus-filled infection at the root of a tooth, which can cause swelling, fever, and severe pain.
• Lost Fillings or Crowns: Losing a filling or crown can leave a tooth exposed and vulnerable to infection and damage.

Emergency Dental Services We Provide

At Paris Dental Centre, we are equipped to handle a wide variety of dental emergencies. No matter what situation you find yourself in, you can trust our team to take care of it. Here’s a closer look at the services we offer:

‍

Toothache Relief

A toothache can be a sign of many underlying issues, including cavities, gum infections, or even tooth abscesses. If you’re in pain, it’s important to seek treatment right away. We’ll diagnose the cause of the toothache and provide treatment to alleviate pain and restore your dental health.

‍

Emergency Root Canal Treatment

When the pulp inside a tooth becomes infected or damaged, it can lead to severe pain and discomfort. A root canal is often necessary to save the tooth and prevent further damage. Our team performs this procedure quickly and efficiently to ease pain and restore function to your tooth.

‍

Broken or Cracked Tooth Repair

Accidents can happen, and sometimes, that results in a cracked or broken tooth. Our team will assess the damage and provide the appropriate treatment, whether it’s a filling, crown, or other restorative procedures to restore the tooth’s integrity.

‍

Knocked-Out Tooth Care

Losing a tooth due to an accident can be alarming, but if you act quickly, it’s possible to save the tooth. If you can, find the tooth, rinse it gently, and place it back into the socket or keep it moist in a glass of milk or saline solution until you can reach our office. The sooner you get help, the higher the chance of saving the tooth.

‍

Abscess Treatment

A dental abscess is a serious infection that can cause swelling, pain, and even fever. If you suspect an abscess, don’t wait for it to worsen. Our team will drain the infection, prescribe antibiotics if necessary, and provide additional treatments to prevent future issues.

‍

Lost or Broken Fillings/Crowns

A missing filling or crown can leave your tooth vulnerable to further decay and damage. We’ll replace it quickly to protect your tooth and restore its function, helping you maintain optimal oral health.

‍

Gum Injury Treatment

If you experience a laceration or injury to your gums, our team can quickly assess the damage and treat it to prevent infection. In some cases, stitches may be required, but rest assured, we will ensure that the healing process is as smooth as possible.

‍

Wisdom Tooth Pain

Wisdom teeth often cause pain and discomfort, especially when they are impacted. If you’re experiencing significant pain or discomfort from your wisdom teeth, we can help determine if removal is necessary and ensure that the process is done efficiently and with minimal discomfort.

‍

Dental Trauma Treatment

Whether you’ve suffered a direct blow to the face, a sports-related injury, or an accident that impacts your teeth, we’re here to help. Our team will work quickly to assess the damage, relieve pain, and restore your teeth if possible.

‍

Emergency Orthodontic Care

If you wear braces or other orthodontic devices and experience discomfort, a broken wire, or a loose bracket, we provide emergency orthodontic care to relieve pain and prevent further damage.
