Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Emergencies
How to choose the right Emergency dentist?
Here is how to choose the right emergency dentist in Byford.
- Look for a dentist close to where you stay. This way, you don’t have to drive around for an hour when in an emergency.
- Find someone who accepts your dental insurance plan.
- Make sure to enquire about the clinic's working hours. It is best to look for a clinic that is open at all times.
- Find out about the services that the dentist provides.
- Ask if they have some restrictions on the patients’ age that they treat. If you have children and elders at home, then this is a crucial point to consider.
Can you go to the ER for a dental emergency?
Yes, it would be best if you visited the ER in the case of a dental emergency or you can call or walk-in our dental clinic. We are conveniently located at Byford Marketplace.
When should you go to the ER for dental emergencies?
If you are suffering from unbearable pain that seems to soar to your neck and jaw, you should go to the ER. If your mouth is bleeding or you had a huge blood loss, so much so that you may lose consciousness, then do not delay going to the ER immediately.
Do emergency dentists remove teeth?
In most cases, the emergency dentist will try to save the tooth. In case they cannot, they will first remove the tooth and then discuss the replacement options.
What helps unbearable tooth pain?
Rinsing your mouth with warm and salty water, applying a cold compress to the cheek or jaw, and removing food and plaque from between your teeth can treat unbearable tooth pain.
