Resolve tooth pain and salvage your oral health with Emergency Dental Care

Sometimes you need to see a dentist a lot sooner than expected. If you have an unexplained excruciating toothache, or you’ve accidentally damaged your tooth, you don’t want to delay your dental appointment until next week – you need help right away! At Smile Studios in Redmond, Washington, we know a dental emergency can crop up at any time. That’s why we offer same-day appointments to help you when urgent dental emergencies come knocking on your door.

What is considered a dental emergency?

Life is always throwing curveballs at you. And sometimes, these challenges might be in the form of a dental emergency. But what constitutes an emergency? It’s any dental problem that requires urgent care to stop bleeding, alleviate pain, or save your tooth. Here are some examples of dental emergencies.

• Dental abscess: This occurs when pus forms in the inside of your tooth due to an infection. Symptoms include high fever, toothache, sensitivity, bumps on gums, and a swollen face.
• Knocked-out tooth: Did you know your knocked-out tooth can be saved? Carefully pick the tooth by the crown, rinse the tooth without scrubbing, and try to reinsert it in your socket. If this is not possible, place the tooth in a glass of milk and see a dentist immediately.
• Fractured tooth: A cracked tooth is a dental emergency since the damage isn’t just superficial but could have hurt your tooth from the inside. If you have a broken tooth, rinse your mouth with warm water, use a cold compress to relieve discomfort, and contact your dentist.
• Bleeding: Bleeding gums could suggest the presence of gum disease, so it’s best to see a dentist immediately before it’s too late.

When you arrive at our clinic due to a dental emergency, treatment depends on your case. We perform dental restorations if the previous installation has popped out loose. For gum disease, we perform periodontal care, and for severely damaged teeth, removal may be necessary. All in all, we offer continued care to ensure your oral health is restored to its former glory.
