Emergency Dentistry at Solterra Dentistry

Dental emergencies can be scary and painful, but knowing you're not alone is essential. At Solterra Dentistry in Phoenix, AZ, we offer emergency dental services to help you when you need it most. Whether you're experiencing severe tooth pain, a broken tooth, or a knocked-out tooth, our experienced dental team is here to provide prompt and effective care.

What is a Dental Emergency?

A dental emergency is any situation that requires immediate attention from a dental professional. These emergencies can include:

  • Severe toothache or tooth pain
  • Broken or chipped tooth
  • Knocked-out tooth
  • Loose or missing filling or crown
  • Soft tissue injuries, such as cuts or lacerations to the gums or cheeks

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it's vital to seek emergency dental care as soon as possible. Delaying treatment can lead to further damage or complications, and in some cases, it can even result in tooth loss.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency

If you're experiencing a dental emergency, the first thing you should do is contact Solterra Dentistry at (602) 788-0730. Our experienced dental team will provide instructions on managing your symptoms and schedule an emergency appointment as soon as possible.

In the meantime, there are several things you can do to manage your symptoms and minimize your discomfort:

  • For severe toothache or tooth pain, rinse your mouth with warm salt water and take over-the-counter pain relievers as directed.
  • For a broken or chipped tooth, rinse your mouth with warm salt water and apply a cold compress to the affected area to reduce swelling.
  • If possible, try to reinsert the tooth into the socket for a knocked-out tooth. If you can't reinsert the tooth, place it in a milk or saliva container and bring it to your emergency appointment.
  • For a loose or missing filling or crown, try to place the filling or crown back in place using dental cement or toothpaste. Avoid chewing on the affected tooth until you can see your dentist.

When you come in for your emergency appointment, our dental team will provide you with a thorough examination to determine the best course of treatment. Depending on your symptoms and the severity of your condition, we may recommend the following:

  • Root canal therapy to treat severe tooth pain or a tooth infection

Preventing Dental Emergencies

While dental emergencies can happen to anyone, there are several things you can do to reduce your risk of experiencing a dental emergency:

  • Practice good oral hygiene habits, such as brushing and flossing daily, to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
  • Wear a mouthguard when playing sports or engaging in other high-risk activities.
  • Avoid chewing on hard foods or objects, such as ice or pens, which can damage your teeth.
  • Visit your dentist regularly for checkups and cleanings to catch and treat dental problems early on.
