Common Causes of Dental Emergencies
Several factors can cause dental pain requiring rapid intervention:
- Trauma: Impact, fracture, or tooth loss following an accident
- Advanced tooth decay: This infection develops gradually and can cause intense pain when it reaches the dental pulp
- Dental abscess: Localized infection that can result from untreated tooth decay, a fracture, or periodontitis
- Wisdom tooth eruption: Pain and inflammation during the eruption of the third molars
- Periodontitis: Inflammation of the gums and bone tissue that can become very painful
- Post-operative complications: Abnormal pain after a dental procedure
What to Do while Waiting for your Emergency Appointment?
In Case of Tooth Loss:
- Retrieve the tooth by holding it by the crown (not the root)
- Rinse it gently with water without rubbing
- Keep it in saliva or cold milk
- Bring it to the clinic as soon as possible
In Case of a Cracked or Broken Tooth:
- Rinse your mouth with warm water to clean the area
- Apply a cold compress to the outside of the cheek to reduce swelling
To Relieve Pain:
- Apply ice for 10 minutes to the sensitive area
- Take 10-minute breaks and repeat as needed
- Consult us before taking pain medication, as some may be contraindicated depending on your situation
