Immediate Care for Dental Emergencies When You Need It Most

At Narre Warren Family Dental Group, we know that dental emergencies can happen at any time, and they often require immediate attention. Whether you're dealing with a painful toothache, a broken tooth, or another dental issue, our compassionate and skilled team is here to help you quickly and effectively.

We understand how stressful dental emergencies can be, and we are committed to providing the care you need to relieve pain, prevent further damage, and restore your smile.

What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?

Dental emergencies can take many forms, but common situations that require immediate attention include:
  1. Severe Toothaches- Intense pain can be a sign of an underlying issue, such as an infection or deep cavity.
  2. Knocked-Out Tooth - Whether from an accident or sports injury, quick action can sometimes save the tooth.
  3. Broken or Cracked Teeth - A fractured tooth may need immediate care to prevent further damage or infection.
  4. Lost Filling or Crown - If you lose a dental restoration, we can help restore it quickly.
  5. Swelling or Abscesses - Swelling in the gums or around a tooth may indicate an infection that needs urgent care.
If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to contact us as soon as possible.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

If you’re in pain or have suffered a dental injury, follow these steps while waiting for your appointment:
  1. For a Knocked-Out Tooth:
    • Handle the tooth by the crown (the top part), not the root.
    • Rinse the tooth gently with water (don’t scrub it or remove tissue).
    • Store it in a container of milk or saliva.
    • Get to our clinic immediately.
  2. For a Knocked-Out Tooth:
    • Rinse your mouth with warm water to clean the area.
    • Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and pain.
    • Avoid chewing on the affected side of your mouth.
    • Call us as soon as possible to schedule an emergency visit.
  3. For a Severe Toothache:
    • Rinse your mouth with warm water and floss gently to remove any debris.
    • Take over-the-counter pain relievers (such as ibuprofen) to manage pain.
    • Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek to reduce swelling.
    • Contact us immediately for an assessment and treatment.
  4. For a Lost Filling or Crown:
    • If the filling or crown is intact, try to place it back over the affected tooth.
    • Use dental wax or sugarless gum to temporarily cover the exposed tooth.
    • Call us to schedule an appointment to reattach or replace the restoration.
