What Counts As A Dental Emergency?

As a rule of thumb, any condition that’s causing you serious oral pain and bleeding counts as a dental emergency. This means that lots of different things can qualify as a dental emergency, including:

Severe toothaches
Chipped and cracked teeth
Broken teeth
Loose teeth
Knocked-out teeth
Pulled out crowns, fillings, and other dental work
Deep cuts and lacerations to the mouth
Objects lodged between teeth

If you think that you need emergency dental care, you’re probably right! You can call Sweet Magnolia Dentistry at (860) 646-1535 to book a visit with Dr. Burnett. We are usually able to offer same-day emergency care for patients with urgent dental conditions.

The Importance Of Immediate Emergency Care

Eliminate pain and discomfort – A dental emergency like a broken tooth or a toothache can cause severe pain. It may be impossible to focus on your job, family, school, or your normal day-to-day routine. The sooner you get emergency care, the sooner you can get your life back to normal.
Prevent further complications – The longer you wait to get treatment, the more likely it is that you can avoid complications and more expensive, time-consuming dental procedures. For example, getting help for a broken tooth right away may prevent it from becoming infected, eliminating the need for a root canal.
Get peace of mind – After your visit with Dr. Burnett, you’ll know that you’re in good hands, and you can stop worrying about your oral health. Our team will diagnose your issue, provide the expert care you need, and schedule any necessary follow-ups to get your oral health back on track.

What Should I Do In An Emergency?

Call Sweet Magnolia Dentistry

First, give our team a call and tell us about your situation. It’s important to see Dr. Burnett and our team ASAP. The sooner you call Sweet Magnolia Dentistry, the more likely it is that we’ll be able to provide you with same-day care.

Recover your tooth or dental work (if applicable)

If you’ve lost a tooth, it must be replaced within 1-2 hours at most to save it. Grab it, rinse it off, and put it into a container of cold milk, then bring it with you to your visit.

If you’ve lost a piece of dental work like a dental crown, it’s a good idea to put it into a small plastic container and a baggie and bring it in with you to Sweet Magnolia Dentistry.

Take steps to treat pain, swelling, and bleeding

You can take over-the-counter pain medication like ibuprofen to help with pain. Topical numbing products like Orajel may also help with pain until you can come see Dr. Burnett. Applying an ice pack to the outside of your cheek near the affected area can also help with pain and swelling.

If your mouth is bleeding, you can use clean cotton balls, gauze, or paper towels to place pressure on the affected area and absorb blood. Bleeding should slow down within 10-15 minutes.

Come to your scheduled dental visit

You can’t treat dental emergencies on your own, so it’s important to come to your appointment with Sweet Magnolia Dentistry as soon as you can. Dr. Burnett will take steps to relieve your pain, diagnose your condition, and provide the treatment you need to restore your oral health.
