Traumatic Injuries that Require Emergency Dental Care
Traumatic dental injuries can happen to anyone. Regardless of the cause, your priority should be to get immediate treatment to relieve pain and resolve the problem. Your quick action could make a difference between saving your tooth or suffering permanent tooth loss. If you’re unsure your situation requires emergency dental services, it’s best to err on the side of caution and contact Dr. Nima Afzalian immediately. At My Dental and Implants, Glendale, Arizona, we offer prompt and effective emergency dental care.
Traumatic Injuries that Require Emergency Dental Care
Dental mishaps can result in an assortment of injuries. Injuries causing pain, mouth swelling, or bleeding should be seen by your dentist right away. Some examples of serious dental injuries include:
- A chipped or fractured tooth
- Teeth that are painful when touched
- A loose or partially displaced tooth
- Knocked-out tooth
- Damage to your tongue, mouth, cheeks, or gums
- Uncontrolled bleeding of teeth or gums
When in doubt, contact our team to explain your situation and get help with treatment. Don’t take chances when it comes to traumatic dental injuries. Delaying treatment could result in your condition worsening. Left untreated, a weak or damaged tooth could become infected, putting your whole mouth at risk.
Acting quickly could also help save your tooth and avoid the trouble and expense of replacing it later. At My Dental and Implants, we’ll do our part to provide prompt dental treatment to help restore your oral health.
Ways to Prevent Traumatic Tooth Injury
Taking precautions when playing sports or on the job can minimize the risk of sports or work-related oral injuries and preserve your oral health. We recommend wearing protective facial gear or a mouthguard to protect your teeth and mouth when playing contact sports. Facial safety gear can also protect you from oral injuries at home and on the job.
