What is regarded as a Dental Emergency?

It’s crucial to understand what types of dental pain require emergency dental treatment. This way you ensure yourself, your friends and your family avoid any unnecessary journeys to the emergency room. Dental accidents can happen all the time. You might have recently got a filling done and one way or another it might have caused swelling or might indicate an infection to the tooth or gums. You might have cracked a tooth, due to biting down on hard foods, and physical sports such as rugby or martial arts. Accidents like these might call for the help of your local emergency dentist Salford. Below is a list of dental emergencies.

Severe bleeding after a tooth has been pulled out or extracted
Adult teeth or a permanent tooth being knocked out
Unbearable toothache
Swelling that may indicate an infected tooth or gums
Swelling of the mouth or face that doesn’t seem to be getting any better
Oral pain that cannot be controlled with over-the-counter painkillers

Steps to take if you knocked out your tooth?

Make sure to contact your local Salford dentist as soon as possible as it’s very likely that we can return it to its original socket. Make sure you take immediate action as you don’t want to wait around. The sooner you contact the dentist the best chance you have of saving that tooth. Below are the steps that you need to take.

Locate the broken tooth
Clean off any dirt or contamination on the tooth
Hold it by the crown and try to put it back into position. This should only be done for adult teeth, not for baby teeth
Bite down on a tissue or something similar (handkerchief) to hold the tooth in place
Call 0161 768 2029 and mention that it’s a dental emergency that requires attention

Infections, Abscesses or Swellings

Usually, swelling is caused by an infection which might be a slight infection in your teeth or gum tissue, or there might be a more dangerous large abscess that has to be immediately drained. If you feel a swelling that is quite tender and warm to the touch, call our emergency helpline immediately and come in so that you can be accurately diagnosed. Our experts will check your teeth and gums thoroughly and apply the appropriate treatment or prescribe the necessary medication.
