Dental Emergencies

Understanding Dental Emergencies

Dental emergencies can happen at any time and can be a frightening experience for many people. Whether it's a toothache, a broken tooth, or a knocked-out tooth, it's important to seek prompt care to prevent further damage and alleviate pain.

At South Kitchener Dentistry, we understand the importance of prompt care during a dental emergency. We have a team of experienced dental professionals who are available to provide urgent care for dental emergencies.

Common Types of Dental Emergencies

One common dental emergency is a toothache. This can be caused by a variety of factors, including cavities, gum disease, or a cracked tooth. If you're experiencing a toothache, it's important to seek prompt care to alleviate pain and prevent further damage to the tooth.

Another common dental emergency is a broken or chipped tooth. This can be caused by trauma to the mouth or biting down on a hard object. If you have a broken or chipped tooth, it's important to seek prompt care to prevent further damage and restore the tooth's function.

What to Do If a Tooth is Knocked Out

If a tooth is knocked out, it's important to seek emergency dental care as soon as possible. The tooth may be able to be re-implanted if care is received within the first hour of the injury. If you have a knocked-out tooth, it's important to keep the tooth moist and bring it with you to your dental appointment.
