Services Available at Johansen Dental

Dental emergencies can take on many forms. You may have a history of grinding your teeth at night or a toothache that is getting worse. You may also be involved in an accident that resulted in a hard impact on your mouth, jaw, or face. All of these instances can cause pain that is hard to tolerate, as well as potential damage that can get worse if left untreated. Dr. Johansen and our staff have the experience and equipment necessary to provide a wide range of emergency services. These services include:

• Gum tenderness. Your gums are vital to your overall dental health. If you notice any tenderness, pain, or discoloration, it is important to schedule an appointment with us as soon as possible. We can help to determine the cause of your dental concerns, providing the right methods for alleviating and preventing further issues.
• Toothache assessment. Toothaches can be caused by several different concerns. Toothaches can often start small, usually as a sharp pain while eating or drinking. What can start as a minor periodic inconvenience can soon turn into a persistent pain that affects your daily life. This is often because a toothache is a symptom of a larger dental concern that needs to be addressed.
• Avulsed or damaged tooth. Accidents happen. Even if you are not involved in high-contact sports, you can experience a hit to the face that could damage your teeth. An avulsed tooth, also known as a knock out, is the most serious. A tooth that becomes fully dislodged can also impact the health of the socket, gum, and surrounding tissue. It is important to allow Dr. Johansen to investigate the issue and ensure it will heal correctly. Other tooth damage includes breaks, chips, and cracks. While these may not be as severe, they can still impact your overall dental health.
• Root canal procedure. In serious dental emergencies, you may be at risk of losing a tooth. This can be caused by persistent decay or damage that continues to develop, even with fillings or crowns. To save the tooth, your dentist may recommend a root canal. This procedure helps to revive the connection of the tooth and root, restoring health and saving the tooth.
• Replacing fillings or crowns. Fillings and crowns play an important role in protecting teeth that have required previous work due to decay or damage. While these dental tools are designed to be snug and last a lifetime, this isn't always the case. A filling or crown can become loose due to the type of material used to create it, or due to more decay affecting the placement. Fast replacement is key to avoiding more serious dental concerns.
• Infections. Dental infections can leave you physically sick and unable to eat or drink. Infections can be caused by damaged or decaying teeth. In some instances, this infection can spread beneath the surface of your gums, deep into your jaw bone or surrounding tissue. If you experience swelling or unpleasant smells, you could be dealing with a serious infection that requires medical attention.
• Extractions. If a tooth is severely damaged, we may recommend a full extraction. This is usually one of our last options, but it can be necessary for saving healthy, surrounding teeth.

Ways to Avoid a Dental Emergency

No one wants to experience a dental emergency. It can impact your daily life, cause you pain, and leave you uncertain of your dental health. This is why we suggest our patients be proactive about their dental health. The first important step is committing to regular brushing and flossing at home. This can prevent the build-up of decay, which is a major cause of many dental emergencies. We also suggest that patients schedule regular cleanings at our office twice a year. This allows us to provide a full examination, and we can catch problems early on.
