What are considered dental emergencies?

Anything that causes pain, whether it’s a toothache or a broken tooth, can be considered a dental emergency. Even if you aren’t in discomfort after cracking or breaking a tooth, you should contact us ASAP. If you delay treatment, bacteria can get inside your tooth and become infected.

Does the ER treat dental emergencies?

Since there won’t be a dentist in the ER, they won’t treat your dental emergency. The ER team can stop bleeding if for some reason you’ve been unable to stop it on your own. They can also prescribe an antibiotic if you are exhibiting signs of an infection, such as fever. To actually eliminate the problem causing the infection, you’ll need to see a dentist.

What should I do for dental emergencies on weekends?

At Sequoia Dental Office, it’s always possible to reach one of our dentists outside normal business hours. They can advise you on steps you should take until you are able to come to our office. We open at 7:00 a.m., so it likely won’t be too long until you can see us! During the week, we can usually offer you a same-day appointment for emergencies.

No one can anticipate every possible dental emergency, but you can take steps to reduce your odds of having such a problem. Following ADA recommendations – brushing and flossing daily and getting regular dental cleanings – reduces your risk of tooth infections and gum disease. Wearing athletic mouthguards during sports can protect your teeth from injuries.
