Common Emergency Services

Dr. Devender and our highly skilled staff understand the anxiety of needing an emergency procedure performed. We will provide care and compassion while working with you. We will take the time to explain your options fully, ensuring you are comfortable before we proceed with any work. We are highly skilled and able to perform several emergency dental services. Common emergency services that we provide at Hanuman Oral Surgery Care include:

• Filling and crown loss. Losing a filling or crown often happens while eating, especially when biting into something hard. When these are lost, you’ll experience a quick uptick in your sensitivity to pressure and temperatures. This can be not only uncomfortable but outright painful. When left untreated, this can also cause further decay of the tooth. It is important to have your filling or crown replaced as quickly as possible to ensure the health of your tooth.
• Extractions. When examining your teeth, Dr. Devender will do all possible to protect your natural teeth. In extreme cases of damage or decay, it can be best to fully remove the tooth. This is often associated with a possible infection that could spread to other teeth if untreated.
• Root canal therapy. In some instances, a root canal is the best option for saving your natural tooth. This could be from a root dying, damage such as having a tooth knocked out, repeat fillings, or advanced decay.
• Toothache relief. A toothache can impact all aspects of your life. When you experience a toothache, it is usually a signal that something isn’t right on a deeper level. It is important to have Dr. Devender examine the area quickly to determine the true cause of the toothache.
• Gum pain. Sensitivity or pain with your gums is often a warning sign of an issue in the deeper tissue of the gums. With proper assessment, this issue can be addressed and relieved, before it gets worse.
• Tooth repair. One of the most common occurrences of emergency dental services involves cracks, breaks, or a complete knockout of a tooth. Our office can help to assess the severity of the issue and formulate the proper treatment. While all require examination, a knocked-out tooth, in particular, could also mean damage to the root, tissues, blood vessels, and surrounding nerves. Quick action could even save the tooth, in some circumstances.
• Unexpected jaw pain. If you notice sudden tenderness or pain in your jaw, it is important to schedule an appointment with Hanuman Oral Surgery Care asap. This pain is often caused by an infection along the bone of the jaw, and the surrounding tissue that supports your teeth. To prevent the spread of infection, it is important to be examined to find the cause of the infection.

Preemptive Steps in Preventing Emergency Care

Emergency care is low on the to-do list for everyone. It is a source of stress and interrupts your daily plans and schedules. While not every emergency can be avoided, there are instances where it can be, with proper preemptive measures. This includes keeping a regular oral hygiene schedule at home for brushing and flossing. This also includes taking the time to have a six-month check-up with Dr. Devender. Regular checkups provide a clear overview of your dental health. This allows our team to catch small problems before they turn into larger situations.

Don’t Wait to Schedule

While some emergencies need obvious immediate care, others may feel like they can be pushed off. It is important to remember that this isn’t the case. When this happens, the problems only become worse and can lead to further complications. It is important to visit our office as soon as you notice something is wrong.
