Dental emergencies happen to patients of all ages, including adults, and they often happen without warning. You bite into a piece of cool fruit and feel the sting. You knock your tooth loose while playing ball in the park.
No matter the nature of your dental emergency, my team and I are here to help!
Common dental emergencies include:
- Tooth Root Infections (tooth pain)
- Oral Injuries
- Knocked Out Tooth/Restoration
- Broken Tooth/Restoration
If you have an oral health issue that doesn’t fit into the above list, call our dental team for guidance. It’s difficult to imagine every potential emergency scenario, and you can rest assured, we will not leave you in pain or allow your dental health to remain at risk.
I aim to offer fast care when you need it most!
Emergency Dentistry in Randolph: What to Expect
First, I assess your emergency to make a fast diagnosis. Then, my team and I take measures to treat your oral health issue.
The most common dental emergency is a root canal infection, which typically presents as a toothache with jaw swelling. The pain can be excruciating. I will numb the area to provide relief as soon as possible, and then clear the infection from your tooth. I close it with a temporary filling and later cap it with a crown.
If you have a knocked-out tooth, I will take measures to save it. In other words, with timely intervention, I can sometimes restore the tooth to the socket.
When your tooth cannot be saved, I will stabilize the discomfort and discuss tooth replacement, which is vital to preserving your oral health and smile aesthetics.
