What happens if your teenager gets his or her tooth knocked out
during a sporting event? And it’s on a weekend? What do you do
if you or your spouse suddenly experiences a very painful
toothache? Are you going to go to the emergency room at the
hospital and perhaps have to wait for hours to be seen?
Not if you’re a patient in our practice!
We offer you emergency care treatment because we always want to
be here when you need us most. You can call us 24 hours a day, 7
days a week. You will get a LIVE PERSON, not an answering
machine or service. We promise to get you out of pain the same
day. Even if your emergency will require further treatment, its
good to know that at least you won’t have to suffer the whole
weekend!
Emergency Tips
Here are some things you can do, in addition to calling us right
away, if you find yourself in
an emergency.
Tooth pain:
For mild tooth pain take Tylenol (if you are not allergic to
it). For more severe pain you can apply ice for 10 to 20 minutes
every hour.
Sore on gums or inside cheek:
You can place a temporary “cover” over the sore area with
Orajel™ or other products available at most any drug store.
Bleeding after an extraction:
Take a thick gauze pad and apply it over the area with strong
pressure. You can also soak a tea bag in water, then place it
over the area for 30 to 60 minutes.
Fractured or dislocated jaw:
This is where you need to get to a hospital emergency room right
away. Don’t try to move
your jaw!
Chipped tooth:
Take some candle wax and place it over the damaged tooth. If
there are any pieces of the tooth available, place them into a
cup of milk and bring them in with you. Get here as soon as you
can.
Knocked-out tooth:
If possible place the tooth back where it came from and hold it
there while you get yourself transported to our office. If for
some reason you can’t hold the tooth in place, put it in a cup
of milk and get to see us as soon as possible. It’s important
that you don’t touch the tooth root with your fingers.
