What To Do In A Dental Emergency
Here are three of the most common dental emergencies and what to do in these situations. We hope this list can provide you with some information and assistance until you can reach an emergency dentist Wollongong.
Toothache
- Rinse your mouth with warm water to remove any food particles or debris that might be stuck. If this doesn’t work, use floss to dislodge anything stuck between teeth or in cavities.
- You may use a cold (NOT hot) compress to reduce swelling if it is present.
- If you are in pain, take oral pain relief and see a dentist as soon as possible.
Broken or Knocked-Out Tooth
- Clean tooth fragments and debris from the mouth with warm water.
- Keep tooth fragments in a small container filled with milk. If milk is unavailable, use water or the patient’s saliva. Make sure the tooth/tooth fragments are moist at all times until you reach the dentist.
- Use a cold compress on the outside of your cheek if the injury is a result of trauma. Control bleeding using a towel or gauze.
- See a dentist as soon as possible.
Oral Trauma or Cuts to Mouth Tissue
- Apply pressure with clean gauze or towel to control bleeding. Maintain pressure for 10 minutes or more.
- Control swelling by using a cold compress. If you have uncontrollable bleeding, contact a medical professional right away.
