Dental Emergency

Accidents happen and you’ll never know when a dental emergency will occur. Here at Sydney CBD Dentistry, we accept emergency dentistry.

Whether you tripped and chipped your tooth or when you’re participating in a local sport and accidentally injured your lips – we can help you with that.

In case you encounter a dental emergency, you should contact your emergency dentist immediately for him to assess if you need to go to the clinic for immediate treatment.

However, not all dental issues are qualified as dental emergencies, some may just need a home remedy to temporarily ease the pain such that visiting the emergency dentist Sydney can wait. 

The first step is always to remain calm and ensure safety. To know the next thing to do, it is important to identify whether the situation is a dental emergency or not.

Common Dental Emergencies

• Chipped, cracked or knocked-out tooth
• Lip or tongue injury
• Severe toothache
• Dental abscess 
• Object wedged between teeth

Being Prepared

It is important to know how to respond or handle a dental emergency. Some situations may require special steps to save the affected teeth, especially in children.

Since dental emergencies are unpredictable, it is best to keep a small dental first aid kit at home or whenever you travel. Keeping your emergency dentists’ phone number handy is also important to get quick advice.

Having your dental information or record can also help especially when you’re travelling. Here are some items recommended to be put in your dental kit:

• Gauze pads
• Cotton balls and swabs
• Medical gloves
• Dental floss
• Toothbrush
• Tweezers
• Ice pack
• Pain reliever
• Mouthguard
• Hydrogen Peroxide
• Wash Cloth
• Mirror

How can I prevent a dental emergency?

Dental emergencies can be prevented by having regular visits to your dentist Sydney CBD to make sure that your teeth are healthy and free from decay. Untreated oral health issues can be more severe problems, causing unbearable discomfort or pain that will need emergency dental treatment.

If you’re into sports, wearing a mouthguard can help avoid teeth from being knocked-out or cracked. It’s also helpful to avoid chewing on hard foods and ice to prevent fracturing your teeth.

Emergency Dental Treatments

We understand that patients have different dental needs and dental treatments and procedures are always on a case-to-case basis.

In that, some patients are not available during the day and can only attend to their dental treatments at a later time or during the weekends or holidays.

Some may also encounter problems involving their teeth at a time when most dental clinics near me are closed especially during the nighttime.

Meanwhile, other patients may need urgent treatment and the waiting time in the clinic reception area is not an option.

An Emergency Dentist Sydney CBD helps with your gentle dental needs as urgently as possible. If you suddenly bit on something hard and chipped your tooth or if you wake up in the middle of the night due to an excruciating toothache, our emergency dentist Sydney can be of help to you.

Some dental treatments that Emergency Dentists take care of include:

1. Dental Treatments during holidays and weekends

Some patients have to attend work or school, therefore, having dental services available past regular clinic hours and during the weekends and holidays can greatly benefit these busy patients.

2. Urgent treatment past office hours

It is definitely an advantage to have your emergency dentist in Sydney contact at hand or any private clinic information that can help if you, unfortunately, encounter problems in the middle of the night.

Most of the time, these private practices will accommodate you to inform you of the proper first aid measures to relieve any pain or discomfort and immediately schedule you for an appointment as soon as possible.

3. Unexpected dental accidents

As much as we try to avoid it, some accidents do happen and in such case where you need urgent help such as when you chip a tooth or your teeth have been completely knocked-out, an emergency dentist can help with treatment management.

For such cases, patients need not line up to receive emergency dental care in Sydney. If you are in this situation, immediately contact your emergency dentist near me for an immediate appointment.

4. Dental traumas

For dental traumas involving the jaws and the teeth, it is advised that you visit the nearest emergency facility that can tend to such problems. Most hospitals have emergency protocols to help with your needs at whatever time of day.
