Emergency Dentistry Services
Aside from being extremely uncomfortable and painful, dental emergencies can chip away at your confidence and sabotage your day. Imagine having a cracked tooth when you’re supposed to have a big presentation at work/school or to go on a date later at night: definitely bad luck. And with severe toothache—a widespread dental emergency—anyone will have trouble performing adequately.
This is why at Northbrook Dentist, our Highland Park emergency dentist is committed to providing quality dental care to anyone who needs our prompt attention. We will quickly diagnose and determine the most appropriate treatment for your emergency so you can avoid further discomfort, pain, and worse problems in your oral health.
Our experienced emergency dentists are skilled in addressing a range of common dental problems, including:
Toothache – Identifying the cause of your toothache should be done quickly so proper dental care can be administered. There are different dental problems that could cause severe toothache, but the two common causes are pulp infection and having something stuck between two teeth.
Using a cold compress can help relieve your discomfort, but if your pain comes on suddenly, is intense, and gets worse progressively, contact our emergency dentist right away.
Chipped or cracked teeth – Whether caused by accident or by biting down on hard objects, fractured teeth (chipped, cracked, or broken) should be seen by an emergency dentist as soon as possible. You should rinse, preserve in a glass of milk or water, and bring any tooth fragments to your emergency dental appointment.
Depending on your specific needs, we can then offer cosmetic and restorative treatment for your teeth. We can utilize dental bonding, porcelain veneers, or place a dental crown so the structural integrity of your tooth will be renewed.
Loose or knocked-out teeth – If your tooth is loose, seeing our emergency dentist immediately can help you avoid permanent tooth loss or extraction. In many cases, we can stabilize a loose tooth by splinting it to an adjacent tooth. In the meantime, however, you should prevent the tooth from falling out by keeping it in its socket, biting down on the tooth gently, so it stays in place until your emergency dental appointment.
If your tooth got knocked out, preserve it in a glass of milk or water. You can also try to put it back in its socket and gently bite down on it, just like with a loose tooth. If it’s not possible to save your natural tooth, we can offer dental implants and restoration.
Loose dental crown – For a loose dental crown, you should see an emergency dentist immediately to avoid more discomfort and restore the function and appearance of your tooth. We offer different high-quality materials for your dental crown replacement, including zirconia, all-porcelain, and porcelain fused to metal.
Tooth abscess – Abscess refers to an infection that spreads to the tooth root, causing pain and discomfort when you bite down. The infection spreads quickly, so seeing our emergency dentist immediately is warranted. We may provide antibiotics combined with a root canal therapy depending on your specific case.
Soft tissue injury – Soft tissues in the mouth include your tongue, insides of the cheeks, gums, and lips. When any of these is injured, immediately call our emergency dentist so you’ll know exactly what to do next. This is because, in some cases, you may need to go to the emergency room instead and not our clinic. Before you get to your appointment, though, you should rinse any lacerations, punctures, and tears with warm water and then apply pressure to stop the bleeding.
Regardless of the specific dental emergency that you or your family is having, however, Northbrook Dentist can provide you with a quick and effective dental solution that won’t break the bank. Give us a call, and a same-day appointment will be scheduled for you.
