Dental Emergencies
Knocked-out tooth
The first step is to stay calm and find the actual tooth. Handle it by the crown (the top), not the root, without scraping or rubbing away any tissue fragments. If possible, rinse the tooth quickly in milk or some saliva to remove any dirt or debris. Then try to gently hold it in place in the socket. If you’re not able to replant the tooth, keep it moist by immersing it in milk or saliva (not water), sealing it in plastic wrap, or placing it in the person’s mouth next to the cheek. Time is critical in saving the tooth so contact the dentist immediately for an emergency appointment.
Chipped, fractured or cracked tooth
Clean the area by rinsing the mouth with warm water. Use an ice pack wrapped in a clean towel or a cold compress on the face if needed to reduce swelling. The urgency depends on the severity but only a dentist can discern how serious the condition is. It’s better to be safe than sorry – head to the surgery as soon as possible.
Toothache
Rinse the mouth out with warm water and floss the area to remove any debris. If pain persists, contact your dentist immediately.
Gum abscess and swelling
Contact the dentist immediately. They will be able to prescribe some pain relief and/or antibiotics to settle the infection and devise a treatment plan once the area has been assessed.
Wisdom tooth pain
Apply an ice pack to the outside of the face to reduce swelling for just 20 minutes. Repeat as required. Additionally, you can rinse your mouth out with warm salty water every 2 to 3 hours and try taking an over-the-counter medication, that you’re already familiar with, to relieve your pain.
Bleeding gums
Brush your teeth with a soft brush, and avoid brushing in back and forth movements. Instead, try circular rotations, brushing away from the gums. Floss your teeth before going to sleep; flossing beneath the gums removes food and debris. If you are still suffering from bleeding gums, you may need to get your teeth professionally cleaned. Once they have been cleaned thoroughly it will be much easier to maintain good dental hygiene and healthy gums. And remember, flossing properly minimises the chance of periodontal disease.

If you’ve chipped or broken a tooth as a result of an accident or an injury, it can be a traumatic experience. It’s very important that you see a dentist immediately, even if the tooth is just slightly chipped. And if you have knocked out a tooth or several teeth, the sooner you are seen by a dental professional the better because there is a chance that the teeth could be re-implanted, depending on the severity of your injury.
It’s very important that you keep the knocked out tooth clean and avoid handling the root. In some cases, you may be able to put the tooth back into the socket by biting down on a clean paper towel for around 15-20 minutes.
If you have a chipped tooth then your dentist may be able to smooth down the uneven edge and replace the missing part with a tooth-coloured filling. If you break a back molar then this may have to be replaced with a crown.

Emergency Dental FAQs
Is an emergency dentist the same as a general dentist?
In a sense, yes! General dentists are the most common type of dentists because they can treat patients of all ages. However, an emergency dentist is also like a general dentist! They undergo general dentistry training, as well as additional emergency training.
Most emergency dentists are actually general dentists who decided to take the extra training. General dentists, however, are typically staffed in practices, while emergency ones are in dental urgent cares or the emergency rooms of hospitals.
How soon do I need to visit the dentist?
The sooner, the better. Receiving prompt care is especially important if one of your teeth got knocked out; if you get help within an hour or so, it might be possible for your emergency dentist to splint it back in place. In other situations, such as if you lost a filling, you may be able to practice self-care for a day or two before you visit your dentist.
What if I have a toothache?
Dental pain can be very debilitating, to the point of keeping you up at night. This type of severe and constant pain can be the indicator of a dental infection. If your tooth is infected, it’s important to understand that you need to seek treatment right away because an infection won’t heal on its own.
A dental infection that is left untreated will progress and could spread to other critical areas of your body and could also affect other teeth. Root canal therapy may be able to preserve your tooth and eliminate the infection if you are proactive about seeking treatment.
What should I do if my tooth is broken or chipped?
For a broken or chipped tooth, patients are advised to save any of the fallen pieces before rinsing their mouth and the recovered pieces of the tooth with warm water. If there is bleeding, the patients should put a piece of gauze on the affected area until the bleeding stops. Patients can also apply a cold compress on the affected area to reduce swelling and relieve the pain before going to see the dentist.
What is a dental emergency?
A dental emergency is generally defined as intense pain, sudden swelling, or just a generally large amount of discomfort. This could be caused by a sudden injury or accident, or for some other unknown reason. Since dental problems rarely solve themselves, it often qualifies as a dental emergency, and you should immediately visit your dentist. Whether you have a severe toothache, have chipped your tooth, or are suffering from another form of a dental emergency, don’t hesitate to contact our practice in Gilbert so you can return to your pain-free life!
My child’s baby tooth is knocked out; what should I do?
You will need to contact an emergency dentist as soon as you can because you will need an experienced person to help you with this kind of situation. You should not try to replant a baby tooth because of the likelihood of damage while the tooth grows.
How can I remove an object caught between teeth?
If you happen to get a piece of food or any other very small object wedged between your teeth, you can try to very gently remove the object with dental floss. You should not use anything that is extremely sharp, like a pin around your teeth as it may cause damage. If what is there cannot be removed by dental floss, contact a dentist soon to schedule an appointment.
