Common dental emergencies include:
- Persistent, severe toothaches indicating potential underlying problems.
- Loss of dental restorations, such as fillings or crowns, which can expose teeth to further damage.
- Injuries to the mouth’s soft tissues, including cuts or lacerations to the tongue, cheeks, lips and gums.
- Teeth that are cracked or fractured, jeopardizing their structure and health.
- Chipped or broken teeth, affecting both oral function and aesthetics.
- Teeth that are partially or fully knocked out, requiring immediate intervention to save the tooth.
Should you encounter any of these scenarios, or if you are facing another type of dental emergency, please contact our office right away. Our team will not only prioritize your visit but also offer guidance on managing your condition until you can receive professional care from Dr. Raymond del Castillo. This may include temporary measures to alleviate pain or protect the affected area.
In cases of trauma to the head or neck, we advise seeking immediate medical attention at an emergency room or consulting your general physician before addressing dental injuries, even if your oral health is compromised. This ensures that any potentially life-threatening injuries are treated promptly.
