Common Emergency Dental Procedures

Issues with your oral health can impact several areas of your life. It can interfere with drinking, eating, and other common activities we shouldn’t have to give a second thought to. Whether this is an issue you’ve noticed for some time, or a quick, unexpected problem, Dr. Upton and his staff can provide you with top-notch care. At Village Dentistry, we provide several emergency services, including:

• Filling repair. If you’ve noticed a loose or lost filling, it’s important to have Dr. Upton examine it immediately. When left unattended, food and other debris can become trapped, which can lead to further tooth decay and pain.
• Crown repair. It is important to get a crown repaired as soon as possible, ideally within just a few days of noticing it loose or missing. When a crown is damaged or lost, there is an increased risk of damage to the roots of that tooth. We will be able to quickly and effectively repair or replace your crown to ensure the health of your tooth.
• Damage repair. Accidents happen, and many accidents involving the face, jaw, or mouth result in teeth cracking, breaking, or a complete blow-out. It is important to contact Village Dentistry as soon as possible to assess the level of emergency, as well as the ability to save any part of the tooth.
• Assessing severe toothaches. Any pain or discomfort in your mouth simply shouldn’t be tolerated. When you experience aches and pains, they are often alerting you to issues happening beneath the surface. While there is over-the-counter pain relief, you should never self-medicate or assume it is just a minor issue.
• Assessing gum sensitivity. If you notice any tenderness or discoloration of your gums, it is important to schedule an appointment with Dr. Upton as soon as possible. He will be able to assess the situation and provide you with a plan for alleviating any pain you might be experiencing. Much like having a toothache, gum pain can be a sign of a deeper issue within the tissues.
• Emergency extractions. In circumstances where the tooth can’t be saved, an extraction is necessary. This is often due to a damaged tooth causing pain from severe damage, decay, or infection. The best way to avoid any infection from spreading is to remove the tooth.
• Repair through a root canal. In some instances, a problem tooth could lead to the necessity of completing a root canal procedure. This could be due to having to have repeat fillings, or the root of the tooth is no longer connected properly and the tooth is beginning to die. A root canal procedure can save your tooth from having to be extracted.

Best Step in Prevention

No one wants to find themselves in an emergency dental situation. It can be stressful, not to mention painful. While not all emergencies are completely avoidable, there are steps that you can take to increase the likelihood that you wouldn’t need an emergency service performed. The best step in prevention is committing to having a routine dental check done every six months. This allows Dr. Upton and his staff the ability to track the overall health of your teeth and gums. When you stay on top of your appointments, any changes can be spotted, often before you even realize there is an issue just below the surface.

Making Your Emergency Appointment

Any oral pain or discomfort is worth getting checked out. When it comes to dental issues, the bulk of them will only get worse in time. This can lead to even more complicated procedures and a longer healing time. If you worry something isn’t quite right, it is important to make your appointment with Village Dentistry as soon as possible. Dr. Upton and his team are ready to provide you with a quality experience to get you back to your old self. Contact us through our online form or give us a call at (928) 284-9632.
