 Knocked-Out Tooth or multiple Teeth

If you have lost a tooth or multiple teeth, it is important to seek dental care as soon as possible. Depending on the severity of the situation, you may need to see an emergency dentist or oral surgeon. If the tooth is knocked out completely, try to find it and bring it with you to the dentist. Rinse it off gently with milk or water but do not scrub it or remove any tissue. If you cannot find the tooth, don’t worry – your dentist can still help. Missing teeth can cause problems with eating and speaking, and can also lead to other dental problems, so it’s important to get treatment right away.

Tips for a knocked-out tooth:

• Call a dentist immediately – time is critical
• Keep calm and find the tooth
• Pick up the tooth by the top crown (white part) and avoid touching the root.
• Clean the tooth in mulk or briefly rinsing with water
• Put the tooth back into the socket

Alternative ways to store a knocked out tooth:

• Store the tooth inside the cheek and gums,
• Store inside a glass of milk
• Cover a cloth with the persons saliva and wrap in cling wrap.

The goal is to store the tooth in a way that will keep the tissue alive, to allow the dentist to re-attach the tooth.

Things to avoid with a knocked out tooth:

1. AVOID holding the tooth’s root surface
2. AVOID putting the tooth on ice or keep in water.
3. AVOID removing tissue or gum from the tooth.
4. NEVER replant a baby tooth, as it could damage the underlying adult tooth.

Broken or Chipped Tooth

A broken or chipped tooth can be a very painful experience. If the break is severe enough, it can cause the tooth to become loose and eventually fall out. In some cases, a broken tooth can also lead to an infection. If you have a broken or chipped tooth, it is important to see a dentist as soon as possible so that they can determine the best course of treatment.

Severe Tooth Pain & Toothache

Severe tooth pain and toothache can be caused by a number of things, including cavities, infection, gum disease, and even grinding your teeth. If you’re experiencing severe tooth pain, it’s important to visit a dental practice right away to determine the cause and get treatment. In the meantime, over-the-counter pain relievers can help ease the pain.

Is a root canal a dental emergency?

You may require a root canal treatment, however, as root canals require multiple visits to the dentist it’s usually not an emergency type of treatment.

Presence of Severe Swelling or Abscess

If you have severe swelling or an abscess, it is important to see a doctor right away. Swelling can be a sign of infection, and an abscess is a pocket of pus that can form when an infection is present. If not treated, an abscess can become very large and cause serious problems.
