Emergency Dentist Tulse Hill
Urgent Dental Treatment
Toothache is a common experience that almost everyone goes through at some stage in life. Whether the discomfort is mild or severe, it is widely known that teeth can cause significant pain and discomfort, often without warning. It is essential to take care of our dental health to avoid such discomfort.
In case of an urgent dental problem, feel free to reach out to our practice without any delay. We keep a few appointments available every day to ensure that you can receive treatment on the same day if you experience pain or discomfort. Rest assured that we’ll be there to help you out in such situations.
Local Emergency Dentist
Our clinic is committed to providing excellent dental care and we are working diligently to prioritize the needs of our patients. We have implemented the highest safety standards, procedures, and additional safety measures to ensure the well-being of our patients remains our top priority.
It is satisfying to discover that patients feel reassured by our meticulous approach and continued implementation of safety measures. Our efforts are not only aimed at accommodating emergency patients, but also at maintaining the oral health of those undergoing new or ongoing treatments on a regular basis. No essential details are left out in our approach.
Emergency Dental Treaments
- Toothache: Floss your teeth and rinse your mouth with warm water to remove debris. Apply a cold compress to your cheek to help swelling. Don’t use painkiller gels near the sore tooth as they can burn the gums and cause further pain. See your dentist as soon as possible.
- Chipped / Broken Teeth: Save any remaining pieces of teeth and rinse thoroughly. Rinse your mouth with warm water and, if necessary, apply gauze to the injured site to stop bleeding. A cold compress applied to your cheek can help swelling and soothe pain. Book an emergency dentist appointment.
- Knocked-out teeth: Hold onto the crown (the bottom part of the tooth) and remove very carefully the dirt, if any, from the tooth root. Don’t scrub away any remaining tissue fragments. If possible, very gently place the tooth back in the socket and contact your dentist.Or if that is too difficult, keep it bathed inside your cheek, so your saliva bathes it. In children, keep it in some milk.
- Partially dislodged (extruded) tooth: Apply a cold compress to your cheek to ease pain. Take over-the-counter pain medication if necessary. See your dentist as soon as possible.
- Lost filling: As a temporary solution, use dental temporary filling material from a chemist or sugar-free chewing gum to bridge the cavity. Your dentist will replace your filling at your emergency appointment.
- Lost crown: Book an emergency dentist appointment and bring the crown with you. If possible beforehand, you can apply dental cement/denture adhesive or toothpaste to the inner surface of the crown and try to place it back over the tooth.
- Trapped object between teeth: Attempt to gently remove the object with dental floss. If the object can’t be taken out, contact your dentist right away.
- Broken braces or wires: Rinse your mouth with salt water to keep your mouth clean and ease pain. You may be able to push the wire back into place using a soft pencil eraser. Call your dentist if the wire won’t move back into place or is broken.
- Loose brackets and bands: Loose braces can be temporarily reattached with orthodontic wax before your dentist fixes them. If a band becomes loose, save it and call your dentist to have it reattached.
- Abscesses: Abscesses are serious infections that form under teeth and spread if left untreated. Book an emergency appointment with your dentist right away if you notice any painful swelling in your mouth. In the meantime, rinse your mouth with salt water to relieve pain and draw pus to the surface.
- Soft tissue injuries: Injuries to the cheeks, gums, tongue and lips often bleed and require immediate dental treatment. In the meantime, ease pain by rinsing your mouth with salt water. To control the bleeding, apply pressure to the site with gauze for 15-20 minutes. You can also hold a hot compress to your cheek for 5-10 minutes.
- All emergency dental cases are promptly handled and treatment is provided on the very same day.
- Every patient is given a customised treatment plan and quotation.
- We gladly accept nervous patients at our practice, suffering from any type of dental trauma.
