While some oral health crises require immediate care from a dental professional, others might need you to have some patience. Here\u2019s how to tell if your dental problem constitutes an emergency along with a few tips for how to find <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plushdentistry.com\/emergency-dentistry.html\">an emergency dentist<\/a> when you need one immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Counts as a Dental Emergency?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental emergencies usually result from untreated oral infections or sudden trauma to the mouth. A few examples include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Severe, throbbing toothaches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dislodged or fractured teeth<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lacerated gums<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Some other dental problems, though inconvenient and quite distressing, do not count as a dental emergency. A few of these include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Lost fillings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chipped veneers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Broken dental appliances<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Should I Do If I Have a Dental Emergency?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are experiencing a dental emergency, contact your dentist\u2019s office to schedule an emergency appointment as soon as possible. They will probably pencil you in to come in that day so you can receive an emergency exam along with some medication to control pain and prevent infections. Any necessary repairs, root canals, or other medical interventions may be scheduled for the upcoming days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What If an Emergency Dentist Is Not Available?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have to wait until your dentist\u2019s office opens again, go to the emergency room for treatment. They will provide you with pain medication and antibiotics to control pain and prevent infections. If your tooth is dislodged, they will be able to provide a treatment that can keep it in savable condition for up to twenty-four hours. These treatments should be enough to tide you over until you can schedule an emergency dental appointment in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a great idea to research emergency dentists and their schedules before you have a dental emergency. By being prepared for the worst, you can help an emergency be resolved in the best possible way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Plush Dentistry makes dental visits comfortable and pleasant for patients in Frisco, TX.
