Not sure if it's an emergency? Let's review what is (and what isn't) a dental emergency:
DENTAL TRAUMA
Dental trauma involving a lost tooth is a dental emergency! If your permanent (adult) tooth falls out of your mouth due to injury, our emergency dentist suggests to gently clean off the root, if still in tact, and try to replace it in the socket in the appropriate orientation as soon as possible. If you can replace the tooth within 30 minutes, research shows a much higher percentage of keeping your original tooth! Other tips include storing the tooth in saliva (like in your cheek), or milk. You should not wait over two hours to be seen by a dental professional.
Dental trauma involving a broken tooth is a dental emergency. If you are experiencing pain, please call our Bondi Junction, Sydney office ASAP. We will do our absolute best to squeeze you into that day’s schedule.
DENTAL ABSCESS
Dental abscess is a dental emergency and should be treated immediately. A dental abscess could spread and become a dangerous situation if not treated properly.
Facial Swelling
Swelling that affects not only the cheeks, but also the gums can indicate an underlying dental problem. It is a dental emergency and should be treated immediately.
BLEEDING GUMS
If your gums are spontaneously bleeding, yet you have regular cleanings and checkups, this is a dental emergency. Please visit your medical doctor immediately to check the status of your health, and let your dentist know as soon as possible. Bleeding gums could be a symptom of a more serious health condition.
BROKEN or Chipped tooth or lost filling
Unless you’re in extreme pain, a broken or chipped tooth or lost filling is not an immediate dental emergency, However it should definitely be fixed as soon as possible. For these cases, we will book you at our next available spot.
