Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What should I do if my tooth gets knocked out?
A: Gently rinse the tooth, try to place it back in the socket, and call us immediately. If you can't place it back, keep it moist in milk or saliva.
Q: How do I know if I have a dental emergency?
A: If you're experiencing severe pain, bleeding, or swelling, or if you've lost a tooth, it's considered an emergency.
Q: What do I do for a severe toothache?
A: Rinse your mouth with warm water and gently floss to remove any trapped food. You can apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek to reduce swelling. Do not place aspirin directly on the gums or aching tooth. Contact us immediately.
Q: My gums are bleeding, what should I do?
A: Rinse your mouth with warm salt water. Apply gentle pressure to the bleeding area with gauze. If the bleeding doesn't stop, contact us right away.
Q: What if my filling or crown falls out?
A: If possible, save the filling or crown. Rinse your mouth and apply clove oil to the sensitive area. Contact us for an appointment as soon as possible.
Q: I have a painful abscess, what should I do?
A: Rinse your mouth with warm salt water. Do not attempt to puncture the abscess. Contact us immediately, as abscesses can lead to serious infections.
Q: How do I handle a chipped or cracked tooth?
A: Rinse your mouth with warm water. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. If possible, save any broken pieces of the tooth. Contact us immediately.
Q: What constitutes a "dry socket" and what do I do?
A: A dry socket is a painful condition that occurs after a tooth extraction when the blood clot is dislodged. If you experience severe pain a few days after extraction, contact us immediately.
Q: What do I do if I have swelling in my face or jaw?
A: Swelling can indicate a serious infection. Contact us immediately or go to the emergency room.
Q: Can I take pain medication before my emergency appointment?
A: Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help manage pain. However, avoid placing aspirin directly on your gums.
"Quick, painless professional and nice staff! I had a little of an emergency...broke a crown in half the night before I was leaving for chicago. l left a message after hours and received a call back in a very short time. They opened their office early in order to accommodate me and did an incredible job accessing the problem and planning for an effective solution!"
