What to do in a Dental Emergency
Dental emergencies can be a serious matter and should not be taken lightly. Officer Smiles highly recommends that in a dental emergency, patients seek prompt medical attention to preserve the affected tooth or area. In addition, while travelling to the dentist or waiting for emergency services, one should take cautionary measures to ensure no further damage is inflicted on their mouth.
Such actions include gently repositioning the tooth with one's finger and biting down lightly to maintain alignment until further aid is reached. For teeth that have been knocked out, they must never be scrubbed or placed under tap water; instead, they can be stored in milk or your own saliva as a short-term measure.
It is therefore important to remain alert when facing a dental emergency, as taking appropriate action can be instrumental in obtaining satisfactory results from treatment.
You don’t have to be in pain for it to be an emergency.
We understand that things can happen unexpectedly. That is why we designate spots in our appointment books for emergency appointments everyday. If you feel there is a problem that should not wait, then it is an emergency. This may be a toothache, or a broken tooth before an important event.
Common reasons for an emergency appointment include:
- Accidents resulting in a knocked tooth: if your tooth has been knocked out of its socket, it is imperative that you attend a dentist ASAP as any delay may affect the chance it can be saved. Pick up the tooth via its crown (not the roots) and rinse it with milk (clean water if milk is not available). Gently place the roots back into the socket until you arrive at the dentist. If this is not possible, keep the tooth soaked in milk.
- Toothache: if you have constant and persistent pain that is not being alleviated by medication and is keeping you up at night then you should seek our assistance as soon as you can.
- Facial swelling: may be a sign of a spreading infection from a tooth. This needs to be addressed before it leads to hospitalisation.
- Broken or chipped teeth: if you have chipped a tooth or lost a filling, don't wait even if it doesn't hurt! More often than not, if these are not fixed in a timely manner it may be more costly and harder to fix down the track.
- Broken appliances: if your appliance, denture or retainer breaks, see us as soon as you can so we can get it back in function.
