At Dandenong Smile Health, we understand that dental emergencies can be stressful and often happen when you least expect them. Our dedicated team is here to provide prompt, compassionate care for a wide range of urgent dental issues. Whether you’re experiencing severe pain, a dental injury, or any other urgent concern, we’re committed to helping you get back to feeling your best as quickly as possible.
Dental emergencies can encompass various situations that require immediate attention. Here are some common types of dental emergencies we handle at Dandenong Smile Health:
Addressing Acute Pain:
A severe toothache can be debilitating and often indicates an underlying issue such as an infection, decay, or a damaged tooth. Our team will conduct a thorough examination to determine the cause of your pain and provide effective treatment to alleviate your discomfort.
Restoring Your Smile:
A broken or chipped tooth can be both painful and concerning. We offer emergency care to repair or restore damaged teeth. Depending on the severity of the damage, treatment options may include bonding, dental crowns, or veneers to restore the tooth’s function and appearance.
Immediate Action Required:
If a tooth has been knocked out, it’s crucial to seek dental care immediately. Preserve the tooth by gently rinsing it with water (avoid scrubbing or touching the root) and place it in a container of milk or saline solution. Bring the tooth to our clinic as soon as possible. Our Dandenong dentists will assess whether the tooth can be replanted and provide appropriate treatment.
Fixing Issues with Restorations:
If you’ve lost or damaged a dental crown, filling, or other restoration, contact us right away. We can schedule an emergency appointment to repair or replace the restoration and ensure that your tooth remains protected and functional.
Managing Infections:
Infections or severe swelling of the gums can be signs of a serious dental issue. Our team will evaluate the infection, provide treatment to address the underlying cause, and help manage pain and swelling to prevent further complications.
Treating Abscesses:
A tooth abscess, which is a localized infection at the root of a tooth, can cause significant pain and swelling. It requires prompt treatment to relieve discomfort and address the infection. We will provide the necessary care, including potential root canal therapy or antibiotics, to treat the abscess effectively.
Emergency Care for Injuries:
If you’ve sustained oral trauma, such as a cut to the mouth or injury to the soft tissues, seek immediate care. We can provide treatment to address the injury, manage bleeding, and ensure proper healing.
