Emergency Dentist in Chicago, IL

Having a perfectly healthy and well-functioning mouth is something that many take for granted. Unfortunately, accidents or other unforeseen circumstances can sometimes cause damage to teeth or gums that can lead to issues with overall oral health. These situations are unpredictable and can leave people scrambling for a quick solution rather than waiting for a typical dental appointment. It's wise to seek immediate treatment, as oral health problems can quickly become worse and more difficult to manage when left unaddressed.

These scenarios are not new to Dr. Ritu Kulkarni of Happiness Dental in Chicago. She and her team see patients with a wide range of dental emergencies on a daily basis, ranging from broken teeth to abscesses. In most cases, Dr. Kulkarni and her staff can provide same-day emergency service to their patients.

Dental Emergencies Happiness Dental Covers in Chicago

We are proud to offer same-day dental emergency service to our patients, with services that include:

• Restorative dentistry. This aspect of dentistry refers to restoring teeth and/or gums to their healthiest state. This might include filling a cavity, placing crowns or bridges, or repairing a crack in a tooth with filling material.
• Periodontics. Periodontal care involves the treatment of issues related to the gums. It is not uncommon for us to treat problems such as gum disease by utilizing a deep cleaning, called scaling and root planing.
• Implants. Dental implants are a popular option for replacing missing teeth. They involve the placement of a titanium post in the jawbone which then serves as an anchor for replacement teeth.
• Prosthodontics. This type of dentistry refers to the replacement of teeth with artificial substitutes. This might include crowns, porcelain veneers, or full dentures. Any emergencies that are related to these types of dental work will be addressed promptly.
• Veneers. Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are bonded to the surface of teeth. They are typically used for cosmetic reasons but can also be used to correct gaps between teeth or other blemishes such as cracks. If you experience an issue involving veneer damage, chipping, or fracture, we will address the issue as quickly as possible.

These are a few of the most common dental emergency services that we offer. We encourage you to learn more about our practice in order to get a better idea of what we can offer you if needed in the future.

Tips to Avoid Dental Emergencies in the Future

While it is impossible to prevent dental emergencies completely, Dr. Kulkarni and her staff can provide you with some helpful suggestions that may help you to avoid them in the future:

• Brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss once a day. This will help to remove plaque and food particles that can cause damage to your teeth and gums.
• Limit sugary and starchy foods. These types of foods can lead to cavities.
• If you are experiencing a dental emergency, do not attempt to deal with the problem on your own by using home remedies. This can often lead to further damage and increased pain.
• See your dentist for a check-up at least twice a year. This will help to catch any potential problems before they become emergencies.
• Avoid unhealthy habits such as smoking and chewing tobacco. These habits can lead to oral cancer, periodontal disease, and other dental problems.

If you follow these tips, you are likely to experience fewer dental emergencies in the future and maintain better oral health overall.
