Common Dental Emergencies We Treat

Knowing what constitutes a dental emergency can help you act quickly and potentially save your tooth. Here are some common dental emergencies we treat at Atlanta Dental Center:

Severe Toothaches

A severe toothache can be a sign of an underlying problem, such as an infection or decay that has reached the tooth's nerve. If you experience persistent or intense pain, especially when eating or drinking, it’s crucial to seek immediate care. Delaying treatment could lead to further complications.

Knocked-Out Tooth

A knocked-out tooth is one of the most serious dental emergencies, but if you act quickly, there’s a chance to save the tooth. Try to keep the tooth moist by placing it in a glass of milk or saline solution, and contact our office immediately. The sooner you see us, the better the chances of successfully reattaching the tooth.

Broken or Cracked Teeth

Teeth can break or crack due to trauma or biting down on something hard. A broken tooth can be painful and, if left untreated, may lead to infection. Rinse your mouth with warm water, apply a cold compress to reduce swelling, and see us as soon as possible for an assessment.

Abscessed Tooth

An abscess is a serious infection at the root of a tooth or between the gum and tooth. It can cause severe pain, swelling, and even fever. This condition requires urgent attention to prevent the infection from spreading to other parts of your body.

Lost Fillings or Crowns

Losing a filling or crown can expose the affected tooth to further damage and infection. If this happens, keep the area clean and avoid chewing on that side of your mouth. Contact us promptly so we can restore your tooth and prevent further complications.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

Dental emergencies require quick and effective action. Here’s what you can do if you find yourself in a dental emergency situation:

Stay Calm: Panicking can make the situation worse. Take deep breaths and focus on getting help.
Contact Us Immediately: Call Atlanta Dental Center at (404) 800-1442 to schedule an emergency appointment.
Follow First Aid Tips: Depending on the emergency, you may need to rinse your mouth with warm water, apply a cold compress, or use gauze to stop bleeding.

Preventing Dental Emergencies

While not all dental emergencies can be prevented, there are steps you can take to reduce your risk:

Maintain Regular Dental Checkups: Regular visits to Atlanta Dental Center allow us to monitor your oral health and catch potential issues before they become emergencies.
Use Mouthguards: If you participate in sports or grind your teeth at night, wearing a mouthguard can protect your teeth from injury.
Avoid Chewing Hard Objects: Ice, hard candies, and other hard objects can cause teeth to crack or break.

PATIENT TESTIMONIALS

"I needed to replace three teeth and was told that the best way to go would be with dental implants. At first I thought, ‘they’re going to drill into my jawbone.’ But actually it was so precise that it ended up being a quick and very comfortable procedure."

"If I ever moved, I think I would fly here for my dentistry! It has a lot to do with how expert the dentists are. They do the injection in the exact area. Unlike in the past, people can’t even tell when I have been to the dentist as my lip where I had the injection looks completely normal"
