Emergency Dentistry Q&A
What is emergency dentistry?
Emergency dentistry is dental care that focuses on situations like an injury or unexpected pain. These situations often require immediate medical care to preserve your teeth and gums.
Radiant Smiles Dental Care offers emergency dentistry services when you can’t wait for office hours. Dr. Hoang is available to meet with you through a convenient telemedicine platform if you experience emergencies like:
- Gum infection
- Cracked tooth
- Intense dental pain
- Knocked out tooth
Until you’re able to receive treatment, Dr. Hoang can provide medical advice via phone or video chat to help you save your tooth.
What else should I do if I have a dental emergency?
In addition to contacting the Radiant Smiles Dental Care office, there are ways you can treat a damaged or lost tooth until you can arrive for treatment.
If you lose a tooth, you can try placing it back in the socket without disturbing the root. If it’s too painful to replace the tooth in your gum, keep it in your cheek or in a glass of milk until you can see Dr. Hoang.
If you have pain from a cracked or infected tooth, you can use cold compresses to minimize swelling and ease discomfort. You can also try rinsing your mouth out with warm water.
Dr. Hoang can provide additional resources through the telemedicine platform to preserve your teeth and gums until your office visit.
What emergency dentistry services are available?
The Radiant Smiles Dental Care office is fully equipped with advanced technologies to evaluate the extent of tooth or gum damage from decay or an injury. Dr. Hoang customizes a treatment plan to meet your needs. Your plan might include:
- Fillings
- Root canals
- Tooth extractions
- Cosmetic dentistry
Dr. Hoang also offers sports guards to prevent tooth damage and loss during sports or other high-impact activities. Bite guards are also available to protect your teeth and gums from damage due to teeth grinding and clenching.
You should also schedule routine dental checkups and regular cleanings to prevent infection and decay that can lead to additional dental emergencies.
