Dental First Aid – What to Do in a Dental Emergency

Dental emergencies can be stressful and overwhelming, but knowing what to do can make all the difference. Whether you’re experiencing an emergency yourself or assisting a loved one, here are some essential first aid tips for common dental emergencies.

Toothache
Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and ease discomfort. Take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil), following the dosage instructions. Call us if the pain persists, as it may indicate a more serious issue.

Knocked-Out Tooth
Act quickly! If possible, gently place the tooth back in its socket without touching the root. If reinsertion isn’t possible, store the tooth in a cup of milk to keep it moist. Call us immediately—the sooner we treat it (ideally within an hour), the better the chance of saving the tooth.

Broken Teeth
Rinse your mouth with warm water to remove debris. If bleeding, apply sterile gauze until it stops. Use a cold compress to reduce swelling. Contact us right away for professional treatment.

Abscesses
An abscess is a serious infection that can spread and cause complications if untreated. Rinse your mouth with a mild saltwater solution (½ teaspoon of salt in 8 ounces of water) to help alleviate pain. Seek immediate professional care, as abscesses require urgent treatment.

If you’re facing a dental emergency, don’t wait—call McArthur Dental Centre immediately for expert care and guidance!

What should I do in a dental emergency?

Stay calm and call us immediately. We’ll provide first-aid advice and schedule an appointment as soon as possible.

What can I take for severe tooth pain?

Over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) can help reduce discomfort. Always follow dosage instructions and consult a dentist if pain persists.

Can I go to the ER for dental emergencies?

While the ER can handle severe cases, such as facial trauma or uncontrolled bleeding, it’s always best to see a dentist who specializes in urgent dental care.

What happens if a broken tooth goes untreated?

An untreated broken tooth can lead to further damage, infection, and even tooth loss. Call us immediately to prevent complications and restore your tooth.

What happens if a tooth infection spreads to the jaw?

A tooth infection that spreads to the jaw can cause serious health risks, including bone loss, abscesses, and, in rare cases, a systemic infection. Seeking prompt professional care is crucial to prevent severe complications.

We are here for your dental emergencies. Trust Dr. Baldeep Saran and the team at McArthur Dental Centre to provide expert, compassionate care when you need it most.
