Dental emergencies can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as wearing a mouthguard during sports activities which aids in preventing breakage or your teeth being knocked out. Avoiding hard foods which may crack your teeth is also important. Of course, professional dental check-ups and care will maintain healthy gums and are of paramount importance. We recommend dental cleaning with your check-ups as this will keep your teeth in check to prevent future dental emergencies.
Excessive bleeding when brushing your teeth or aching gums is not necessarily a sign of a dental emergency, but more likely a sign of periodontal disease and it is important to get treatment as soon as possible to keep your gums healthy so as to prevent further complications. A toothache can mean various things so it is best to make an appointment to get it checked.
Our dentists will assist you with any dental pain you may be experiencing. Once your Emergency dental treatment has been completed, a comprehensive examination will be scheduled to determine if there are other areas of concern.
