Signs of a Dental Emergency

You may be experiencing a dental emergency if you notice any of the following symptoms:

• Severe tooth pain
• Cracked tooth
• Lost adult tooth
• Bleeding
• Swelling
• Severe jaw pain
• Trauma to the dental area
• Tooth infections
• Broken, loose, or missing fillings, crowns, or other dental fixtures

These scenarios constitute a dental emergency and must be addressed as soon as possible. We treat dental emergencies quickly to relieve your pain and protect your oral health!

Emergency Dental Repair

If you have a broken dental fixture, such as a crown, filling, or denture the team at David W. Piper Family Dentistry can repair it promptly. It is important to get the broken fixture repaired quickly so that the problem doesn’t get any worse. After all, an infection can seriously compromise your teeth and gums. 

Come in for an emergency dental repair right away if you notice a cracked, broken, or missing dental fixture. 

Oral Injury Treatment 

Have you experienced trauma to your mouth and noticed bleeding, swelling, cracked, or missing teeth? This also qualifies as a dental emergency. It is important to come in for injury treatment as soon as possible so that your dental issue doesn’t become a major problem later.

If a tooth has been knocked out today you should attempt to keep the tooth in your mouth, if possible, and not allow the tooth to dry out as this can prevent us from restoring it.

Bleeding Gums

If you experience sudden and severe bleeding from your gums, it could be a dental emergency. Advanced periodontal diseases can cause excessive bleeding from your gums. The sooner we can treat this, the less likely you are to lose teeth or gum tissue. 

Untreated gum disease can result in tooth loss, a receding gum line, infections, and other emergency conditions. Do not hesitate to come in for emergency dental treatment.
