What to Do in a Dental Emergency
Toothache
Rinse your mouth with warm water and gently floss to remove debris. Avoid aspirin directly on the gum, as it may irritate the tissue.
Knocked-Out Tooth
Handle the tooth by the crown, rinse it gently, and place it back in the socket if possible. If not, store it in milk and seek immediate care.
Broken Tooth
Rinse your mouth with warm water and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. Save any broken pieces if possible.
Lost Filling or Crown
Use dental cement or sugar-free gum to cover the area temporarily until you can see your dentist.
Soft Tissue Injury
Clean the area with warm salt water and apply pressure to stop bleeding.
How to Avoid Dental Emergencies and Injuries
While accidents can happen, there are steps you can take to reduce your risk:
- Wear a mouthguard during sports or physical activities.
- Avoid chewing on hard objects like ice, pens, or hard candy.
- Schedule regular dental checkups to catch issues early.
- Maintain good oral hygiene to prevent decay and gum disease.
- Address dental concerns promptly before they escalate.
