Dental emergencies can happen anytime, and we understand they can be alarming. That's why our dental care team is consistently staffed and ready to support you in any dental emergency. From treating swollen gums to resolving wisdom tooth pain, Radix Dentistry is here to get you smiling again.
Examination & evaluation
The first step to providing proper care is for your Radix Dentistry dentist to examine your mouth thoroughly. An exam may include an X-ray or other diagnostic tools. Your care team may evaluate you for dental issues such as broken teeth, a dental crown falling out, or an emerging wisdom tooth. After identifying the underlying cause and addressing any inflammation or possible infection, your emergency dentist will explain the diagnosis to you and their recommended care plan.
Pain relief
To get the speediest relief for your dental emergency, describe any pain you're experiencing to your dentist. After they complete your examination, they'll begin implementing the agreed-upon treatment. They may administer pain-relieving medication or a simple injection to alleviate swelling and discomfort faster or prescribe an antibiotic.
Ongoing treatment options
Depending on the nature of the dental emergency you're experiencing, it may be best to schedule a follow-up appointment. This is to provide the adequate time and attention your oral health may need. Although our 24-hour emergency dental team can administer quick and efficient care, if you're experiencing a more complex issue like a root canal, it may be necessary to visit Radix Dentistry once more to give you the full scope of support your dental health deserves.
An emergency dentist can help in many situations, including:
-
Restoration of a loose filling or lost dental crown (sometimes a temporary solution)
-
Wisdom tooth pain management
For other specialized services, such as those requiring an emergency pediatric dentist, contact your local Radix Dentistry office for more information.
When would you need a 24-hour emergency dentist?
If you're experiencing intense or ongoing pain in your mouth, a dentist should look at what's happening. A few of the most common examples of dental emergencies include the following.
Tooth filling: After having a cavity filled and the numbing medication subsides, you may notice a difference in how your teeth feel. If your bite is misaligned or anything feels off, return to your dentist for an immediate re-evaluation or contact a 24-hour emergency dentist.
Broken tooth: Call Radix Dentistry immediately if you have broken a tooth. If not treated immediately, a broken tooth can have rough edges and possibly inflict more damage to your mouth. Your dentist will promptly assist you with the necessary care to restore your smile.
Root canals: A damaged or infected tooth can lead to more complex problems. When you visit a dentist for an emergency root canal, they'll do everything they can to alleviate discomfort as they begin treatment. A follow-up visit may be to complete your care.
Wisdom teeth: If you sense pain at the back of your jaw, an emergency dental care team will evaluate your wisdom teeth and schedule extractions as needed.
Swollen gums: Swollen gums could be caused by an infection or inflammation. Contact Radix Dentistry for immediate care.
Pores in teeth: If you experience tooth pain when breathing through your mouth, your dentist can provide a desensitizing treatment that seals your teeth like varnish. This seal prevents hot or cold air from entering and disturbing teeth.
Other Oral Conditions
If you're experiencing any of the following, your emergency dentist can help:
Canker sore or a cold sore: While the exact cause of canker sores is unknown, it's believed that dental procedures can contribute to irritation inside the cheeks or gums. Laser therapy can help provide instant pain relief and speed up healing. Longer-term care may be necessary to resolve canker sores and cold sores fully.
Sinus pressure: If you have sinus pressure that doesn't seem to respond to other treatments, it could be related to dental health. Visiting your dentist can help you at least rule out any dental connection.
Dental Emergency Care
If you're experiencing tooth pain or discomfort in your mouth, don't wait to contact our 24-hour emergency dentist to administer the immediate dental care you require.
