Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

At Hendricks Family Dentistry, we’re prepared to treat the following dental emergencies and more:

• Severe Tooth Pain: Persistent or sudden tooth pain can be a sign of infection, decay, or damage. Immediate treatment can prevent the problem from worsening.
• Broken or Chipped Teeth: Accidents can result in damaged teeth that need immediate attention to prevent further complications and restore your smile.
• Lost or Knocked-Out Teeth: If a tooth is knocked out, quick intervention can improve the chances of saving it. Rinse the tooth and try to keep it moist while contacting us immediately.
• Dental Abscesses: Infections in the gums or root can cause significant pain and swelling. Emergency care can help reduce the infection and prevent it from spreading.

How to Handle a Dental Emergency

If you experience a dental emergency, follow these tips to manage the situation until you can reach our office:

• Toothache: Rinse your mouth with warm water, gently floss to remove any debris, and apply a cold compress if there’s swelling.
• Broken or Chipped Tooth: Rinse your mouth with warm water and save any broken pieces. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling.
• Knocked-Out Tooth: Try to place the tooth back in its socket without touching the root. If that’s not possible, keep it moist in a container of milk or saliva and call us immediately.
