What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is any issue that requires immediate attention to protect your oral health. Some common dental emergencies we address include:

• Severe toothache or gum pain
• Swelling in the gums, face, or neck
• Lost or broken crown or filling
• Broken, chipped, or cracked tooth
• Knocked-out or partially knocked-out tooth
• Abscess or infection

If you need help with one of these situations, please don’t wait to seek help. Delaying dental treatment often leads to more serious problems in the future that require complex treatment to resolve.

There are steps you can take to help yourself between the time you call us and the time you arrive at our 98270 dental office:

• Toothache —Rinsing your mouth gently with warm water and flossing gently between teeth helps removes any food debris causing discomfort. Take OTC pain medications for temporary relief. Call us promptly to schedule an appointment.
• Lost crown or filling — If possible, locate the filling fragments and keep them in a safe place. Avoid forcing the crown back in place, but consider dental cement a temporary solution. Contact us immediately and avoid chewing on that side of your mouth to prevent further damage.
• Broken tooth — Gently rinse with warm water to cleanse the area. Place a cold compress on your cheek near the affected tooth to help with swelling. Call us as soon as possible to schedule treatment.
• Partially knocked-out tooth — If your tooth is knocked loose due to a sports injury or accident, handle it carefully. Try to gently reposition it in its socket; if you can't, hold it between your cheek and gums or place it in a container of milk or saliva. Contact us immediately for urgent treatment.
• Knocked-out tooth — This is an urgent situation that requires immediate attention. Handle the tooth with care, picking it up by the crown (not the root). Rinse it gently if it's dirty, and try to place it back in its socket; if you can't, preserve the tooth in a container of milk or saliva and rush to our office.

Preventing Future Dental Emergencies

Many dental emergencies are unavoidable, but proper oral care can minimize your risk for many of them.

• Follow a conscientious oral care routine at home by brushing at least twice daily and flossing once.
• Wear a protective custom mouthguard to protect your teeth when playing sports.
• Schedule regular check-ups and teeth cleanings at Blu Dental & Wellness to keep your teeth strong and healthy.
