Emergency Dental Services at Aesthetic Dental

Dental emergencies come in all forms. They can be caused by grinding your teeth, an unexpected loss of a filling, or a blow to the face that results in a knocked-out tooth. Whatever the cause of the emergency, quick care is always the best answer. Many dental issues will worsen over time. Our office handles several dental emergencies, including:

• Avulsed Tooth - aka a knockout. When this happens, it is important to seek immediate dental care. In some situations, the tooth can be successfully reintroduced to the socket and can heal. Even in situations where this might not be the case, it is still important to have the surrounding tissues, nerves, and blood vessels examined for damage.
• Cracked, Chipped or broken teeth - While our teeth are strong, they aren’t invincible. Our teeth can crack or chip due to injury, or simply biting into something the wrong way. When these instances happen, care will vary depending on the severity of the situation. Dr. Noor will be able to discuss your options with you.
• Toothache relief - even the smallest toothache should never be ignored. The toothache will get worse in time. This is often because a toothache can act as a warning for underlying concerns. It is important to assess the real situation so that you can receive proper treatment.
• Gum bleeding or soreness - Issues concerning your gums shouldn’t be taken lightly. If you notice an increase in sensitivity or any bleeding, this can be a sign that there is a larger concern in the deep tissue of the gums.
• Extractions - In certain circumstances, it may become necessary to have a tooth fully removed. This could be due to advanced situations of decay or damage that pose the risk of infection. An extraction helps to prevent any infection from spreading as well as alleviate pain.
• Root canal therapy options - Dr. Noor and his team will always strive to protect your natural teeth. One method of doing this is through a root canal procedure. These are often necessary in cases of a tooth where the root may be blocked so the tooth is dying, it needs repeat fillings, or there is repairable damage.
• Jaw swelling - Swelling, tenderness and pain along the jawline can all be signs of infection. This infection can impact the bone and the tissue that supports your teeth. Proper treatment is key in combating any infection risks.
• Crown or filling repair - Losing a crown or filling often happens while eating. It may have been loose for some time, so it is important to have your tooth examined and the filling or crown replaced as quickly as possible. If you’ve lost a crown or filling, you’ve likely experienced a drastic increase in sensitivity to temperatures and pressures, this can impact many aspects of your life. You may also see more decay in the problem tooth if left unattended for too long.
