Types of Emergencies
Toothache
If you have a constant pain, this indicates there is something wrong that requires attention. Painkillers are usually necessary and if you are able to take them, Ibuprofen is usually best. If you are not able to take ibuprofen, Paracetamol is recommended but be careful not to exceed the maximum dose.
Swelling
This requires urgent attention please call the clinic or local emergency department.
Fractured Tooth
Please do not panic as these can usually be restored. If the tooth is painful, avoid hot and cold foods. If there is pain try to avoid eating or biting on that side. Painkillers can often help. An early appointment is usually necessary to avoid further damage to the tooth and possibly the nerve inside. We can easily provide a temporary restoration and ensure it is pain free.
Lost crowns
There are many reasons for a crown decementing. Please ensure to keep it safe. If the tooth becomes painful avoid hot and cold drinks and contact the clinic soon as possible. If there is no pain ensure the crown is re-cemented as soon as possible.
