Dental Emergencies

Understanding what constitutes a dental emergency is crucial for timely intervention. While not every toothache or minor issue requires immediate attention, it's essential to have any concerns promptly evaluated by a dentist. Here are some common dental emergencies to be aware of:

  • Cracked or chipped tooth
  • Injury to the gums
  • Knocked-out tooth
  • Severe toothaches
  • Change in the color or texture of gums
  • painful toothache

Please note that this list is not exhaustive, and if you have any concerns about your teeth or gums, it’s always advisable to err on the side of caution and seek prompt attention from our team at New Roots Dentistry. Your oral health is our priority, and we’re here to address your dental emergencies with expertise and care.

A Message from New Roots Dentistry

Listen to Your Toothaches:

Ignoring toothaches can lead to more significant issues, even if the pain temporarily subsides. Most toothaches result from inflamed tissue pressing on the nerves within the tooth, often caused by an underlying infection. If you've endured tooth pain for an extended period and it seemingly disappears, it might not signify resolution; instead, it could indicate that the pain-signaling nerves within the tooth have died.

Even if the pain seems to have diminished, it's crucial to have the tooth examined by our family dentist at New Roots Dentistry.

Additionally, dental trauma, such as accidentally biting an olive pit or teeth grinding, can also cause persistent tooth pain. If you notice prolonged discomfort lasting more than 24 hours or heightened sensitivity to hot and cold foods and drinks, seeking a dental examination is advisable. Your proactive care ensures that potential issues are addressed promptly, safeguarding your oral health.

Everyone Deserves a Beautiful Smile.

Having a beautiful smile changes the way people see you. More importantly, it changes the way you see yourself.

Tips from New Roots Dentistry

Pain Relief at Home

Toothaches can be excruciating, and while we strive to see you promptly, emergencies may arise after our regular office hours. Here are essential steps you can take to alleviate discomfort until you can schedule an examination:

Take Motrin or ibuprofen as directed:

Anti-inflammatory pain medication is particularly effective for toothaches.

Rinse with warm salt water:

Alleviate swelling by rinsing your mouth with warm salt water every 1-2 hours.

Apply a cold compress:

Reduce pain and inflammation by applying a cold compress to the affected side of your mouth every 20 minutes.

Use floss:

Remove any food particles stuck between and around your teeth using dental floss.

These at-home measures can provide temporary relief

but it's crucial to schedule an examination with New Roots Dentistry at your earliest convenience to address the underlying cause of the toothache. Your comfort and well-being are our top priorities.
