Introduction

A dental emergency is a type of medical emergency involving the teeth or gums. Pain involving these parts of the mouth, even when minor, can indicate a severe underlying problem that could worsen with time. It is important to contact a dentist as soon as possible for a professional evaluation to minimize damage to the teeth, gums, and supporting bone.

Any injury to teeth or gums can be serious and should not be ignored. Injury can damage nerves or blood vessels. There is also a risk of getting an infection.

If you ignore dental pain or dental injury, you're taking a chance. You should not delay getting treatment. Dental Emergency Rooms can help to:

Relieve pain

Prevent an infection form occurring/spreading

Prevent further damage to teeth and gums

Reduce the need for costly dental treatment

If you're not sure if a dental problem is an emergency, dentists offer this advice:

‘If it hurts, it's an emergency. This is because even injuries that seem small or superficial can affect the living tissues inside the teeth. Quick treatment improves the odds of saving injured or damaged teeth and possibly reduce the need for further costly treatment’

Please remember that the emergency dentist you see out of hours may not be your own dentist, and may not have your dental records. If this is the case you should take a list of any drugs you are taking and be prepared to give details about your general health, as this can affect the dental treatment you receive.

What to do in the event of an Emergency

What should I do to cure a tooth ache?

If you are suffering from a painful toothache, something is wrong and requires attention. Contact us immediately. Painkillers such as Ibuprofen or Paracetamol are recommended; do not exceed the maximum dose.

What should I do if I have a swelling?

Swellings are caused by an infection. Contact us immediately to receive treatment or antibiotics.

What should I do if I have fractured my tooth?

Fractured teeth can usually be restored so there is no need to panic. If the tooth is painful, avoid hot or cold foods and avoid eating or biting on that side i.e. relieve the tooth from extreme temperatures and pressure. Painkillers such as Ibuprofen or Paracetamol may help. Pain free treatment is usually available by contacting us early.

What if I have lost my crown?

Keep your crown safe so it can be re-cemented as soon as possible to avoid further damage and the need for root canal treatment. Contact us immediately.

What if I have knocked a tooth out?

· Tooth needs to be re-implanted into its socket immediately.

· Try not to handle tooth root too much to protect the fibres around the root surface.

· If possible, place tooth back into the socket and splint in place with silver paper.

· DO NOT place tooth in water.

· DO place tooth in cold milk or on one side of your mouth between your teeth and cheeks
