Emergency Dental Care
EMERGENCY DENTAL CARE
Emergency dentistry involves immediate care for urgent dental issues that require prompt attention to alleviate pain, prevent further damage, or address serious oral health problems. Common situations that may require emergency dental care include chipped teeth, abscess’, and teeth extractions. Our uncompromised dentistry provides quick diagnosis and treatment to relieve discomfort and stabilize oral health, ensuring that patients receive the necessary care as soon as possible to avoid complications.
CHIPPED TEETH
Repairing chipped teeth typically involves a few different treatment options depending on the severity of the chip. Minor chips can often be repaired with dental bonding, where a tooth-colored resin is applied and shaped to match the natural tooth, then hardened with a special light. For larger chips, veneers or dental crowns may be used to restore the tooth’s appearance and function.
ABSCESS
Abscess treatment involves addressing a bacterial infection that has formed a pocket of pus in the gums or at the root of a tooth. The primary goal is to drain the abscess and eliminate the infection. Treatment typically begins with draining the abscess, which can be done through a small incision or by performing a root canal to remove the infected tissue.
TEETH EXTRACTION
Teeth extraction is the removal of a tooth from its socket in the bone, typically performed when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or causing crowding in the mouth. The procedure can be simple or surgical, depending on the tooth’s condition. Simple extractions involve loosening the tooth with an instrument called an elevator and then removing it with forceps. Surgical extractions, which are more complex, may require an incision in the gum and removal of bone around the tooth.
