How Is a Dental Emergency Treated?

Emergency treatment has one aim at first: to ease the pain and stop the problem from getting worse. Long-term repairs are planned once the tooth is stable. Depending on what is found, care can include:

• pain relief and infection control
• temporary or permanent restorations
• tooth stabilization, or a [tooth extraction] when necessary
• referrals for follow-up treatment
• coordination with restorative care, such as [tooth fillings] or [crowns and bridges]

How to Help Prevent a Dental Emergency

Many chipped and cracked teeth can be avoided. The [Canadian Dental Association] recommends not chewing hard objects such as ice, popcorn kernels or hard candy, never using your teeth as tools, and wearing a mouthguard during sports to help prevent injuries to the teeth, lips, cheeks and tongue.

If an injury or sudden pain does happen, call as soon as you can: you receive instructions for managing the pain temporarily until you are seen.

Emergency Visit vs Routine Visit

Both visits happen here, but they have different goals.
