Dental Emergencies

Key Signs of Dental Emergencies

• Knocked-Out Tooth: A tooth has been completely knocked out of its socket. Time is critical for potential reimplantation – seek help immediately!
• Fractured, Cracked, or Badly Broken Tooth: A significant break, crack, or chip, especially if it causes pain or leaves sharp fragments.
• Loose Tooth: A permanent tooth that feels loose, out of alignment, or has shifted position (often due to trauma).
• Lost Filling, Crown, or Bridge: When a dental restoration falls out, breaks, or becomes loose, potentially exposing sensitive tooth structure or causing discomfort.
• Suspected Dental Abscess (Infection): Look for signs like a persistent pimple-like bump on the gums near a tooth root, pus discharge, persistent bad taste or bad breath, fever, often accompanied by pain or swelling.
• Injury to Gums, Tongue, or Soft Tissues: Significant cuts or injuries inside the mouth that cause excessive bleeding or pain.
• Severe Pain: Intense, persistent, or worsening pain in your teeth, gums, or jaw.
• Uncontrolled Bleeding: Significant bleeding from your mouth that doesn’t stop easily.
• Sudden Swelling: Noticing rapid or severe swelling in your mouth, face, cheek, or jaw area.
