What to Do in a Dental Emergency

Dental emergencies can be stressful, but knowing how to react can make a big difference in the outcome. Here are a few tips to help you handle common dental emergencies until you can see us:

Toothache: Rinse your mouth with warm water and gently floss to remove any trapped food. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the tooth, as this can damage the gums. If the pain persists, call us right away.
Knocked-Out Tooth: If a tooth is knocked out, try to place it back in its socket if possible. If not, store it in milk or a tooth preservation solution and bring it to us immediately. Time is critical in saving the tooth!
Cracked or Broken Tooth: Rinse your mouth with warm water to clean the area. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling, and call us immediately for treatment.
Lost Filling or Crown: If a filling or crown is lost, keep the area clean and contact us for an emergency appointment. If possible, bring the crown with you, and avoid chewing on the affected side until you can be seen.

Quick action and professional care are vital in preventing further damage and alleviating pain in any dental emergency. At Espire Dental Lone Tree, we’ll do everything we can to see you the same day and provide fast relief.

How quickly can I be seen for a dental emergency?

We offer same-day appointments for dental emergencies whenever possible. If you’re experiencing pain or a dental injury, call us right away, and we’ll do our best to see you as soon as possible. If it’s after office hours, leave a voicemail, and we’ll return it shortly.

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

If your tooth is knocked out, try to gently place it back into the socket. If that’s not possible, store the tooth in milk or a tooth preservation solution and contact us immediately. Quick action is critical to saving the tooth.

Can I treat a toothache at home?

While home remedies can provide temporary relief, it’s important to see a dentist as soon as possible to determine the cause of the pain. Toothaches are often a sign of infection or other serious dental issues that need professional treatment.

Do I need to go to the emergency room for a dental emergency?

A dental office like ours is the best place to receive care for dental emergencies. However, if you’re experiencing severe facial trauma or uncontrolled bleeding, you may need to visit an emergency room first.

How can I prevent dental emergencies?

Practicing good oral hygiene, wearing a mouthguard during sports, and avoiding chewing hard objects like ice or popcorn kernels can help prevent dental emergencies. Regular dental check-ups allow us to catch potential issues before they become emergencies.

Are dental emergencies covered by insurance?

Many dental insurance plans cover emergency treatments. We’ll work with your insurance provider to help you understand your coverage and discuss any necessary financing options.
