Types of Emergency Services

Dental emergencies can happen for several reasons. You may grind your teeth at night, or you forget to brush consistently, or you bit into something too hard and chipped a tooth. We offer a wide range of services because we understand patients seek urgent dental care for a wide variety of issues. We offer services such as:

• Root Canal Therapy Services – This procedure may have some misconceptions, but a root canal is actually a straightforward, pain-free option for retaining your natural smile. Root canals are often performed on a tooth that is experiencing advanced decay or damage. This tooth may have already required work like fillings or crowns, which may have fallen out due to further decay. A root canal can help fix up a tooth in bad shape without the need for extracting it.
• Filling or Crown Loss – Losing a filling or crown can cause immediate discomfort. Further decay can cause a crown or filling to loosen and eventually fall out over time. Most patients experience this while eating. It is important to have fillings and crowns replaced as quickly as possible to prevent further damage to your teeth.
• Jaw Swelling Assessment – Oral infection can present itself in many different ways. A common one is by causing the area around the jaw to swell. It is crucial to have Dr. Socoloff examine you to determine the cause of the infection and provide the treatment needed to eliminate it.
• Gum Discomfort – When you notice tenderness or pain along your gums it is important to seek immediate dental care. Gum pain is often caused by an issue in the deep tissue. Even a small discomfort should be taken seriously to prevent the issue is from becoming worse.
• Chips, breaks, cracks, knockouts – Our teeth are strong, but they aren’t invincible. They can break or come out, often because of an accident involving a blow to the jaw, face, or mouth. It is important to make an appointment with Coast Dental Buckhead to determine the next best step and check for additional damage in the surrounding area.
• Extractions – In some circumstances, it is necessary to remove a tooth. This is often due to damage or decay that is too severe to benefit from a different procedure. In many instances, the tooth is causing pain. Removal will help quickly eliminate any pain associated with that area and prevent the spread of infection.
• Toothaches – Toothaches can be extremely painful, yet many patients push off getting a toothache treated until the discomfort is affecting their ability to perform routine tasks like eating or drinking. A toothache is rarely an isolated problem. In most instances, it is only a symptom of a larger concern that needs to be addressed before real, lasting relief can be provided.

Avoiding Dental Emergency Situations

While not all dental emergencies can be avoided, many of the most common can with proper dental care. This begins with your personal commitment to following your dentist’s instructions when it comes to brushing and flossing. It also includes keeping regular check-up appointments with our office. A professional cleaning every six months allows Dr. Socoloff to develop a detailed picture of your oral health over time to track any potential issues or changes. This allows us to catch any concerns early on. This usually means an easier, less expensive method of treatment and the ability to avoid emergency care altogether.
