What To Look Out For

Signs of a Dental Emergency

Toothaches are your body’s way of telling you that something is wrong. While a toothache can indicate a small cavity, it can also mean that your tooth has an infection. At My Dental Club, we consider a toothache to be a dental emergency because if left untreated, it will always get worse and lead to more complications. If you notice a toothache or sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures, come in right away! After we examine your tooth, we will suggest necessary treatments to get you out of pain and back to optimal health. The most common reasons behind a toothache or a cavity or infection for which the treatment is a dental filling or root canal therapy.

As a rule, we define a dental emergency as any oral issue that is causing you pain, discomfort, and/or bleeding, that you cannot treat on your own. If you are experiencing one of these issues, contact us right away for an appointment or stop by our office.

Taking The Right Steps

What To Do In A Dental Emergency

Common Dental Emergency #1

Severe Toothaches

Toothaches are your body’s way of telling you that something is wrong. While a toothache can indicate a small cavity, it can also mean that your tooth has an infection. At My Dental Club, we consider a toothache to be a dental emergency because if left untreated, it will always get worse and lead to more complications. If you notice a toothache or sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures, come in right away!

After we examine your tooth, we will suggest necessary treatments to get you out of pain and back to optimal health. The most common reasons behind a toothache or a cavity or infection for which the treatment is a dental filling or root canal therapy.

Common Dental Emergency #2

Loose or Missing Dental Work

If you notice that a filling or crown has become loose, this is a dental emergency. When a filling or crown is loose or missing, this leaves your vulnerable tooth exposed to oral bacteria, which can lead to further decay and infection. When you come to My Dental Club for your emergency appointment, bring your dental work with you. We may be able to use the same crown or filling to treat your tooth. If not, we will give you a new filling or crown to protect your tooth from further damage.

Common Dental Emergency #3

Chipped or Cracked Teeth

If your tooth is chipped or cracked in an accident, we offer same-day care to get you back to smiling again. With a dental crown from My Dental Club, you will be back to your daily routine in no time! A tooth that is left untreated after its outer layers have been damaged can lead to further complications. When the inner pulp of your tooth is exposed to food debris and oral bacteria, this often results in infection and requires root canal therapy. Come in as soon as you notice a chipped or damaged tooth to avoid more serious issues!
