When to Schedule an Emergency Appointment at Art of Smiles Fontana
Before making an emergency appointment, you should think about what’s wrong with your mouth and whether it needs to be fixed right away. Small issues can usually wait a few days, but there are times when you need emergency dental care right away:
Dental emergencies: Accidents happen, and if you chip or lose a tooth, you need to see a dentist right away. Get treatment right away to protect your teeth and keep them working. We can also fix your smile by putting in teeth that you’re missing.
Severe Gum Pain: According to WebMD, if you’re experiencing severe pain in your teeth, jaw, or gums that lasts more than two days, it’s time to see a dentist. If you have pain that won’t go away with over-the-counter medicines like Aleve®, Tylenol®, or Advil®, you may need to see a dentist right away because you may have a serious infection or gum disease.
Tooth Abscess: A tooth abscess, caused by a pocket of pus under the tooth, is not only extremely painful but can also lead to a life-threatening infection if left untreated. Seeking immediate care allows dentists to drain the pus and stop the infection spreading before it becomes more serious.
Lost Fillings or Crowns: When patients lose cavity fillings or crowns, the area that’s not covered by the crown or filling can get infected. Replacing it right away will ease the pain and lower the risk of getting an infection. Delaying treatment can make the pain and problems worse.
If you find yourself in any of these situations, don’t hesitate to contact us at Art of Smiles Fontana for prompt and professional emergency dental care.
Reasons for offering immediate dental assistance
We offer immediate dental care to ensure that patients receive prompt assistance. Ignoring a damaged or infected tooth can lead to the spread of infection.
Why should I visit you for emergency dental care instead of the ER?
While emergency room physicians are skilled at treating health emergencies, they must become more familiar with dental care. They can triage any problem you have by helping to stop the bleeding, but they cannot restore a damaged tooth.
If you decide to go to the Emergency Room for a dental problem, you might have to make an appointment with a dentist afterwards. By selecting our dental emergency clinic, you can have peace of mind knowing that we offer thorough care, eliminating unnecessary discomfort and the need for extra appointments. We understand the urgency of your situation and are committed to providing prompt and effective care to help you feel better in no time
