What is Dental Emergency?
Emergencies in oral health extend beyond obvious traumas like a cracked or knocked-out tooth. Any issue causing significant discomfort, such as toothaches, pulled-out dental work, or infections, qualifies as a dental emergency. It's crucial to prioritize your well-being, so if you're experiencing distress, contact Coconut Creek Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry promptly. Dr. Emmy and our expert team are ready to provide immediate assistance, ensuring you receive the timely and comprehensive care you need. Don't hesitate – your oral health matters, and we're here to help.
WHY GET SAME-DAY DENTISTRY?
The Importance of Prompt Care
Same-day emergency dentistry helps you get relief from the pain and discomfort of your emergency. You can get back to your day-to-day life immediately. Getting professional dental care also ensures you’ll avoid any future complications or issues related to your injury or emergency.
This can help you save money and time, too. By getting a crown for a broken tooth right away, for example, you may avoid a tooth infection, which would require additional treatments like root canal therapy. So don’t wait. Get the help you need today.
Be Prepared
KNOW WHAT TO DO DURING A DENTAL EMERGENCY
Remain Calm and Reach Out Immediately
Dental emergencies may be painful, but they are rarely life-threatening. Try to stay calm, and call your Coconut Creek dentist right away at 954-642-2203 to set up an appointment with Dr. Emmy.
Recover Tooth / Dental Work
If you have lost your tooth, grab it and rinse it off, then put it into a container of cold milk to keep it moist. You need to see the dentist within 1-2 hours to have it replaced, so come to Coconut Creek Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry right away. If you have lost a piece of dental work, simply recover it and put it in a small plastic container or bag and bring it to your appointment.
Take Steps To Treat Pain/Bleeding
Clean gauze, cotton balls, or paper towels can be used to absorb blood, if present. Taking medication like ibuprofen and naproxen may help with inflammation and pain, and applying an ice pack to your cheek can help with swelling and discomfort.
Get Same-Day Dental Care
It is important that you get a long-term solution for your issue, so come to our office as soon as you can for your same-day appointment. Dr. Emmy will diagnose your issue, recommend a suitable treatment, and take care of your emergency to provide you with relief from your pain and discomfort.
