- Fractured tooth

Emergency Dental Guide
01. Avulsed Tooth
An avulsed tooth is one that has been completely knocked out of its socket. Time is of the essence in this situation. If possible, gently rinse the tooth with water and try to reinsert it back into the socket. If you cannot do this, keep the tooth moist in a container of milk or saliva and contact our office immediately.
02. Dislodged Tooth
A dislodged tooth is one that has been partially knocked out of its socket. As with an avulsed tooth, it is essential to act quickly. Avoid touching the root and gently rinse the tooth if needed. Apply a cold compress to the area to reduce swelling, and contact our office for an emergency appointment.
03. Severe Toothache
Intense tooth pain can be a sign of a deeper issue, such as an infection or an impacted tooth. Rinse your mouth with warm salt water and take over-the-counter pain relievers as needed. Avoid applying heat to the area, as this may worsen the pain. Contact our office to schedule an emergency appointment.
04. Tooth Abscess
An abscess is a painful infection at the root of a tooth or in the surrounding gum tissue. Symptoms may include a throbbing toothache, swollen gums, and fever. Rinse your mouth with warm salt water and contact our office for immediate care. Do not attempt to drain the abscess yourself.
05. Fractured Tooth
A fractured tooth can result from injury or biting down on a hard object. Rinse your mouth with warm water and apply a cold compress to the affected area. Avoid biting down on the fractured tooth and contact our office for an emergency appointment.
06. Dry Socket
A dry socket occurs when the blood clot that forms after a tooth extraction becomes dislodged or dissolves, exposing the underlying bone and nerves. Symptoms include severe pain, bad breath, and a foul taste in the mouth. Contact our office for immediate care, as dry socket requires professional treatment to promote healing and manage pain.
