Emergency

Dental emergencies require immediate attention. Ur Dental is dedicated to providing you with timely, professional emergency dental care to help alleviate pain and prevent further issues.

What To Do In Case of a Dental Emergency?

When experiencing a dental emergency, prompt action can make a significant difference. Here's what you can do:

• Rinse your mouth with warm water and remove debris by gentle flossing.
• Apply a cold compress to the area to minimize swelling and discomfort.
• Over-the-counter pain relievers can help manage pain.

Common Dental Emergencies and First Aid Measures

Toothache

Toothaches can be debilitating. Here's how to manage them:

• Rinse your mouth with warm water and gently floss to remove any trapped debris.
• Use a cold compress and over-the-counter pain relievers for pain management.
• Avoid heat therapy as it might exacerbate the issue.
• Seek immediate professional care if the pain is severe or persistent.

Knocked-Out Tooth

Quick action is crucial if a tooth is knocked out:

• Handle the tooth by the crown (top), avoid touching the root.
• Rinse the tooth gently if it's dirty, but do not scrub it.
• Attempt to reinsert it into the socket, gently biting down to keep it in place.
• If reinsertion isn't possible, store the tooth in your cheek pouch or a clean container filled with milk.
• Seek dental care immediately – ideally within an hour.

Cracked or Chipped Tooth

If you have a cracked or chipped tooth:

• Save any pieces of the tooth, if possible.
• Rinse your mouth with warm water.
• Apply a cold compress to the affected area to reduce swelling.
• Use gauze to control any bleeding.
• Seek professional dental attention as soon as possible.

Dislodged Crown or Filling

When a crown or filling is dislodged:

• Rinse the crown gently and store it in a safe place.
• Temporary dental cement can help keep the crown in place until you see a dentist.
• Contact a dental professional within 24 hours.
