What Types of Dental Emergencies Do We Treat?

Our emergency dentists have the skills and experience to assess a dental emergency quickly and put a plan into action right away. Here are the dental care services we provide to emergency patients and what you can do until you see your dentist:

1. Severe Toothache

Apply a cold compress and take over-the-counter pain medication (ibuprofen, acetaminophen, etc.) to manage the discomfort. Also, rinse with warm salt water and sleep with your head elevated until you see your dentist.

2. Cracked Tooth

Rinse your mouth with warm, clean water and apply a cold compress to help with pain and swelling until an emergency dentist can see you.

3. Tooth Fracture

If you have a broken or chipped tooth, rinse with water and apply pressure to stop any bleeding. Call an emergency dentist Las Vegas office to see if they can see you right away.

4. Loose or Knocked-Out Tooth (Luxation or Avulsion)

Try to preserve the tooth by keeping it in your mouth or placing it in milk, saline, or clean water. Apply pressure to reduce bleeding and see an emergency dental professional as soon as possible.

5. Loose or Missing Dental Fillings

Contact your dentist right away if you’re experiencing pain or bleeding after a filling becomes loose or falls out.

6. Broken or Chipped Dental Crowns

If you break a dental crown, keep the crown if it wasn’t damaged in case your dentist can reuse it. Rinse your mouth and keep the area clean before your emergency appointment.

7. Broken Braces

Broken orthodontic equipment can be dangerous. Try to reduce irritation or injury by tucking in wires. Also, be careful not to swallow loose brackets. Then, call your dentist to make an emergency dental appointment.

If you’re experiencing one of these dental emergencies, contact Absolute Dental immediately so one of our Las Vegas dentists can accommodate you as soon as possible.

Absolute Dental Emergency Services FAQs

What Should You Do If I Have a Dental Emergency?

– +

If you’re experiencing a dental emergency, you should seek treatment immediately. Call our Dental Emergency Hotline – (702) 744-8009 – to speak to a board-certified dentist right away.

You do not need an appointment for a dental emergency. In the meantime, do your best to rinse out your mouth, stop the bleeding, and preserve your tooth (if your tooth was knocked out). Applying a cold compress will help with swelling and pain until you get treatment.

What Is Considered a Dental Emergency?

– +

If you’re unsure whether you’re experiencing an emergency, here are some questions to ask yourself:

Are my teeth, gums, or mouth bleeding?
Do I have loose or knocked-out teeth?
Is there sudden swelling in or around my mouth or jaw?
Am I experiencing severe tooth pain in one or more teeth?
Is my toothache or jaw pain getting worse?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you’re likely experiencing a dental emergency and should see a qualified dentist right away. In general, an emergency involves immediate risks to the patient’s oral health, including the risk of infection or permanent tooth loss. Also, severe pain that cannot be eased with at-home remedies is a sign of a dental emergency.

What Is the Most Common Dental Emergency?

– +

An excruciating toothache is the most common dental emergency¹ and usually involves inflammation or bacterial infections. Some causes of this common emergency include:

Inflammation of the dental pulp
Abscess
Cellulitis
Inflammed gums

Apart from severe tooth pain, other emergency dental injuries are broken teeth, loose teeth, missing teeth, and broken dental restorations or orthodontic equipment. These emergencies are often caused by accidents, such as:

Car accidents
Falls
Contact sports
Other trauma to the mouth

What Is the Best Painkiller for Severe Toothache?

– +

If you are experiencing a painful toothache, some temporary remedies include over-the-counter pain medication (ibuprofen, acetaminophen, etc.), rinsing the mouth with warm salt water, flossing around the aching tooth to dislodge anything that could be causing the discomfort, using a dental anesthetic gel, sleeping with your head slightly elevated, and applying oil of cloves to the area. Although these help in the short term, be sure to schedule an appointment with your dentist for professional treatment as soon as possible.

How Can I Sleep with a Toothache?

– +

When experiencing a toothache, you may find it difficult to sleep. Before you can see your dentist for treatment, try taking either ibuprofen or acetaminophen to ease the pain, then prop your head up with an extra pillow. Keeping your head elevated prevents blood from rushing to the tooth, which may intensify the pain. You can also try rinsing your mouth with warm salt water and applying an ice pack right before bed.
