What is classed as a dental emergency?
A dental emergency refers to any severe tooth or gum issue that requires immediate attention. The most common dental emergencies include broken or chipped teeth, severe toothaches, abscesses or infections, gum injuries, and excessive bleeding. If you're experiencing any dental pain or emergencies, contact our emergency dentist office in Washington for a prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Fixing your chipped tooth
A chipped tooth happens when a small piece breaks off the tooth's enamel. At our emergency dentistry clinic in Washington, we offer high-quality, prompt same-day treatment for patients with chipped, cracked, or broken teeth. The procedure involves assessing the severity of the chip, cleaning the area, and then filling the chip with a tooth-colored composite material for an aesthetic and durable repair.

Procedures for an avulsed tooth
If you suffer a knocked-out tooth, act quickly. Handle the tooth only by the crown, not the root. Rinse gently, without scrubbing, and place it back in the socket if possible. If not, store it in milk or saliva. Apply a cold compress to reduce pain and swelling. Seek emergency dental care for an appointment. In Washington, there is a chance to save the tooth with prompt care.

What is the quickest home remedy for toothache?
When experiencing a severe toothache at home, there are a few things that can help alleviate the throbbing pain temporarily. Rinse with warm saltwater, apply a cold compress to the affected area, and take over-the-counter pain relievers if suitable. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the tooth or gums. It's crucial to contact a dental professional as soon as possible for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

What is a dental abscess?
A tooth infection is when bacteria invades the tooth's pulp, causing pain (toothache), abscess, red/gums, bad taste in mouth, swelling of face/jaw, high temperature. It requires urgent treatment, as it can spread. Treatment involves draining the abscess to remove pus, prescribing antibiotics to eliminate infection. Seek emergency help if experiencing these symptoms.

Emergency tooth extractions in Washington
When diagnosing a tooth extraction, we consider several factors. If a tooth is severely damaged or decayed beyond repair, extraction may be the last option. Additionally, if a tooth is causing pain, infection, or overcrowding in the mouth, extraction may be necessary. In emergency cases, such as a cracked tooth or trauma, immediate removal may be required. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms and require emergency tooth removal, we recommend seeking dental care from emergency tooth removal dentists in Washington.
