What is a dental emergency?
If you’re not sure if you have a dental emergency, just call us and ask.
Dental emergencies include situations where you are experiencing excessive bleeding, severe pain, or an uncomfortable combination of both. Any dental problem that requires immediate treatment to save a tooth, stop ongoing tissue bleeding or alleviate severe pain is considered a dental emergency.
This can include anything from severe toothache to tooth abscess, knocked-out tooth, lost filling or crown, broken filling or broken crown, tooth out of alignment; chipped, cracked or broken teeth; broken brace wires, loose braces, malalignment, fractures, injury to soft tissue, an object trapped between teeth and others; surgical tooth extraction; sports injury, accident or fall and more.
The cause of the problem can vary. However, there are some problems that are too dangerous to ignore, such as the presence of an abscess or infection. Infections can become more severe and more difficult to fix. If you don’t get immediate treatment you’ll run the risk of turning a minor issue into life-threatening complications.
It’s very important to obtain a consultation immediately with the 24 hour dentists in San Diego if you are experiencing any of the abovementioned issues. Many people do not visit dentists early enough because they are concerned about costs. But the reality is that if you don’t treat problems early on, your bill could triple one day and you can get irreversible long-term damage.
