What are the requirements during a dental emergency?
The first thing is to remain calm and think carefully about the next steps that you will do. If you have lost a permanent tooth, find the tooth if possible is important, for immediate relief. Rinse your mouth if there is excessive bleeding. Try to place the tooth back in its original position, and if there is a risk of swallowing it, place it in fresh milk and come to the clinic immediately. Call the office and explain the case, so that we get the full picture of what to expect and start preparing before you come in for treatment.
For toothache, teeth sensitivity, cracked and broken teeth, and bleeding gums, managing the pain if any is important while at home. Rinse your mouth with warm water and take some painkillers as this will help with the pain. Then call the clinic and schedule an appointment immediately.
