Common Dental Emergencies at Pearly Place Dental
When you or a loved one suffers a dental emergency, it’s essential to seek treatment as soon as possible to save your teeth. Knowing you have a trusted dental team can keep you calm until you reach our dental office.
Some of the more common dental emergencies we treat in Lindenhurst include:
Tooth Pain
If you have a toothache that doesn’t subside when you take over-the-counter pain relievers, you may have an infected or abscessed tooth. Be sure to contact our dental office immediately because the pain won’t go away on its own.
Broken Tooth
If you break a tooth, you are more susceptible to infection until you have it fixed, so gather any pieces of your broken tooth and call us as soon as possible.
Knocked-Out Tooth
If your tooth is completely knocked out, we must see you right away to save it. Try to put your tooth back into the socket without touching its roots; if that doesn’t work, store it inside your cheek or in a glass of milk until you reach our dental office.
Lost or Broken Restoration
If you lose a dental crown or filling, we must repair or replace it to protect your natural tooth from further damage. If this happens, contact our dental office for an appointment.
