Dental emergencies have a way of sneaking up on people. While nobody wants their day to be interrupted by the sudden onset of a miserable toothache or an accidental oral injury, knowing how to contact your emergency dentist when something happens can save you a lot of pain and uncertainty. Here are a few of the most common dental emergencies<\/a> and a few ways dentists can treat them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

A Severe Toothache Could Make Hercules Quake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tooth decay can be reversed if it is in the early stage of a pre-cavity spot, but it will only get worse if left untreated once a cavity forms. A cavity represents an infection, and a nasty, debilitating toothache will result if it is allowed to progress to the pulp at the center of the tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your dentist may treat a toothache with a root canal. During this procedure, the tooth will be numbed with a local anesthetic, and the dentist will remove all decayed tissue. The interior of the tooth will be cleaned, sanitized, and sealed off with a dental crown. A root canal is a painless procedure that can relieve your suffering and have you eating and smiling normally again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dentists Show Tooth Loss Who\u2019s Boss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Teeth can become dislodged due to injuries sustained during falls, bike riding, playing contact sports, and other situations. The first thing to do after losing a tooth is to locate and secure the tooth while taking care to never touch the exposed root. If the tooth is dirty, swish it around in lukewarm water, as running or hot or cold water can damage the shocked tissues. Call the dentist\u2019s office to let them know you are coming and transport the tooth by placing it back in the socket, inside the lip or cheek, in a container with saliva, or a cup of milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your dentist is most likely to be able to reimplant the tooth if you get to their office within two hours of the accident happening. You can buy products at your local pharmacy that can keep a dislodged tooth in savable condition for up to twenty-four hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While dental emergencies can be major impediments to a good time, they can be managed and resolved by a trained dental professional. Modern dental science has saved millions of people from lost teeth and oral infections and is ready to save millions more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
