Emergency Services Available

Dr. Khan and the rest of the CT Dental Associates team are trained to provide many dental emergency services. Whether you’ve been dealing with discomfort for weeks or you’ve just experienced pain for the first time, we can help. Dr. Khan can handle a range of emergency conditions, providing techniques from toothache relief to full root canal therapy.

Our services include:

• Gum Pain Relief—If you notice any pain, tenderness, or discoloration of your gums, don’t hesitate to schedule an appointment with our office. Gum pain is often associated with a larger concern impacting the deeper tissue of the gums.
• Extraction Procedure—Teeth that are too severely damaged or decayed to benefit from other services may need to be removed. Entirely. This is often the cause when an infection or advanced decay risks impacting the health of surrounding teeth. Removing the problem tooth can alleviate any pain and remove the threat of the infection’s spread.
• Jaw Swelling Examination—If you’ve noticed tenderness or swelling along your jaw, you may be experiencing an infection deep in the bone or the surrounding tissue. A professional examination by Dr. Khan can help determine the cause of the pain and begin the right treatment to stop the infection from spreading.
• Toothache Relief—Toothaches are most noticeable when there is a change in pressure or temperature, often when eating or drinking. Pain can start small, making it easy to ignore. However, in time, your toothache will likely become worse, because a toothache is often part of a larger concern that needs to be properly addressed.
• Dental Repair—Teeth are strong, but they are not invincible. Teeth can become chipped, cracked, or broken for several reasons, including biting on a hard object, grinding your teeth at night, or a sudden blow to the face. Your tooth could also become avulsed, or knocked out, which can cause damage to the root, blood vessels, and surrounding tissue. It is important to have an examination as soon as possible to determine the best solution for your dental damage.
• Filling Loss—A filling is important for protecting a tooth that has already required some dental repair, usually after a cavity forms. Unfortunately, fillings can fall out due to further damage of the problem tooth or external strain on the filling material. It is important to have fillings replaced as soon as possible to protect your tooth from experiencing further damage.
• Root Canal Therapy—A root canal helps to restore a tooth that has become severely damaged or decayed. A good candidate for this procedure is a tooth that has already needed repeat crowns or fillings. This procedure can help to prevent the need for an extraction while alleviating the pain caused by extensive nerve damage.

Avoid Dental Emergencies

No one wants to experience a dental emergency. Emergencies often occur at the worst possible time and can leave you in so much discomfort that your pain interferes with your daily life. While not all dental emergencies can be prevented, many are caused by ongoing decay and damage. You can avoid these issues with two routine practices.

The first is caring for your dental health outside of the dental office. Proper brushing and flossing and avoiding foods and drinks that are high in sugar can prevent decay from affecting your teeth. The second involves visiting CT Dental Associates twice a year for a professional cleaning and examination. This allows Dr. Khan and her team to monitor your oral health and address issues before they become severe. In addition, if you participate in contact sports, ask Dr. Khan about a custom-fit mouth guard to protect your teeth.
