A dental emergency includes any situation that involves severe pain, injury to the teeth or gums, or an infection that requires immediate treatment. If you’re unsure, it’s always better to call us – we can help determine if you need to be seen immediately.
If the toothache is severe, persistent, or accompanied by swelling or fever, it’s important to seek care immediately, as it could indicate an infection or other serious problem.
In most cases, it’s best to see a dentist for dental emergencies. While hospital emergency rooms can provide pain relief and antibiotics, they usually don’t have the equipment or expertise to treat dental issues.
If a tooth has been knocked out, it’s critical to see a dentist within 30 minutes to an hour for the best chance of saving the tooth.
Yes! At Espire Dental, we welcome new patients for emergency visits. Whether you’re a regular patient or visiting for the first time, we’re here to help.
Good oral hygiene, regular dental checkups, and wearing a mouthguard during sports are key to preventing many dental emergencies. It’s also important to avoid chewing on hard objects, such as ice or pens, which can cause damage to your teeth.
