Be Prepared For A Dental Emergency

Emergency Dentist

Since one of our services includes emergency dentistry, we know the hardest thing about having a dental emergency can be finding the right care. At that moment, the last thing you want to be doing is spending too much time looking for a provider who can take care of a bleeding tooth or take away a horrible toothache.

Fortunately, our team will be able to help. We provide patients with emergency dental care and provide the immediate treatment you need. Instead of waiting days or weeks to squeeze in an appointment with a general dentist, our emergency dentist will see you as soon as we are able.

Important steps to take before the emergency occurs

The best place to start the search for an emergency dentist is with the regular services provider. Asking one's current dentist if they provide emergency dental services will let an individual know who to call for emergency dental care. As an emergency dentist, we can help to provide immediate dental care when necessary.

The challenge with waiting to find an emergency dentistry until after the accident is not having the time to conduct a proper search. There are many great providers out there, but whenever one uses the Internet to seek out a medical professional, one usually reads reviews and has to fill out certain forms before the first appointment. If an insurance provider does not have an emergency dentist referral, then one can talk to friends and family for possible options.

Don’t postpone emergency treatment

Another tip we offer is to keep our number available in the event of a dental emergency. This way, there is no extra time spent looking the number up online. Also, make sure to find what an insurance company covers for an emergency dental situation. When there is a dental emergency, it is essential to treat it the same way as one does a medical emergency. One specific area we always talk to patients about is bleeding.

Upon calling us, one of the questions we will ask is if the gums or teeth are bleeding and how much. We want you to control bleeding quickly. If it is a slow or light bleed, then you can place gauze over the broken or displaced tooth; holding it in place with pressure should stop the bleeding in around 10 minutes. For heavy bleeding or bleeding that will not stop, you need to seek immediate medical attention.

No matter the dental emergency, we will help you get the necessary treatment. Too often, people will wait to seek treatment and let the situation get worse. Call us as soon as the dental emergency occurs for immediate treatment and beneficial results.
