Dental emergencies can be extremely stressful, especially in cases of tooth pain and missing, dislodged teeth. Our focus is to help resolve severe dental pain and help prevent future problems from happening. During any dental emergency, our team of dentists can keep your family protected from dental pain and give your family healthy smiles. At Bluejay Family Dental, we know how to handle dental emergencies and give prompt attention when you need our care.
Our Services During Emergency Treatment
Having a dental emergency can be extremely stressful – cracked, missing, or dislocated teeth can be extremely painful, especially for children involved in sports injuries or traumatic accidents. For parents, we highly encourage having a plan in these cases. Know that our office is ready to give your family emergency dental treatment when you need it. Our practices provide emergency treatment for a variety of dental emergencies, and we are happy to care for several types of dental emergencies to save your oral health, including:
- Toothaches: Toothaches that are severe and lasting can prevent sleep, make it hard to eat foods and drinks, and can prevent normal day-to-day activities. We begin with a regiment of antibiotics to reduce dental pain, and during emergency treatment, we work to quickly diagnose the source of your toothache to provide long-term treatment and relief.
- Dislodged Teeth: If a tooth has been knocked out of place, then our goal is to save it. For parents, we suggest saving the tooth by placing the tooth in warm milk or saliva to protect the inner pulp. Through this method, we can safely reimplant the tooth back in place and save it.
- Damaged Soft Tissues: Mouth lesions can especially be painful, and during the emergency treatment, our team will work to help reduce pain and help remove any signs of infection or deep tissue tears.
- Dental Infections: Severe gum disease and tooth abscesses are painful infections that can lead to severe tooth decay if not properly treated. These infections require immediate treatment for the infection through a series of antibiotics and follow-up appointments.
- Lost Dental Restorations: Similarly to a dislodged tooth, dental restorations that have been knocked out of place can be immediately remedied by reapplying the restorative materials. If restoration has been lost, then our team will provide a temporary replacement for the restoration.
