The Process

What do I do in a Dental Emergency?

Keep Calm & Reduce Bleeding

Dental emergencies can turn an ordinary day into a stressful experience, but it's crucial to remain calm because your dentist is here to assist you. Start by taking a deep breath and assessing the situation. If there's any bleeding from your dental injury, use a sterile gauze strip to apply pressure to the affected area. Maintain the pressure until the bleeding stops or until you reach our office.

Control Swelling & Pain

If you're experiencing pain or swelling, you can temporarily alleviate it using over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen. However, avoid aspirin and similar blood-thinning medications, as they may hinder clot formation and make it more challenging to stop bleeding. In addition to medication, apply a cold compress to the cheek or lip near the affected area for relief.

Call Us Right Away

After addressing your dental emergency, don't hesitate to give us a call right away. Even if you're unsure about the severity of your situation, our team is here to evaluate the injury and ensure you receive the necessary care as promptly as possible. Your well-being is our priority.
