What Is Considered a Dental Emergency?
A dental emergency encompasses any situation requiring immediate attention to alleviate pain, stop bleeding or prevent further damage. Common emergencies we address include:
- Cracked, fractured or chipped teeth
- Severe toothaches or swelling
- Lost fillings, crowns or other restorations
- Bleeding or injured gums, lips or tongue
- Knocked-out teeth
If you are unsure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, it is better to err on the side of caution. Contact our office at 312-266-9487 and we will guide you on the next steps.
Non-Urgent Dental Concerns
Not all oral discomfort requires immediate attention. Issues like mild sensitivity, sore gums or minor discomfort may signal the need for a checkup rather than urgent care. These concerns are best addressed during regular office hours. However, if your symptoms worsen, do not hesitate to reach out for guidance.
What to Do in a Dental Emergency
In the event of a dental emergency, call our office immediately. Our team will provide instructions tailored to your situation. For example:
- If a tooth is knocked out, keep it moist by placing it in milk or saliva and avoid touching the root.
- For severe pain or swelling, apply a cold compress to the affected area to reduce inflammation.
We will arrange for you to meet with our dentists as quickly as possible to resolve your emergency and help you regain your oral health.
