There are many potential dental emergencies you can be stuck with, from soreness to decay, and none of them are fun or comfortable. While you might believe you can handle the problem, letting these issues fester will only result in worse pain and urgency later. Instead, trust the team at Wicker Park Dental Studio to help you combat whatever dental problem you may have, such as:

• Toothaches: A toothache can result from many things, such as tooth decay, a bad bite on a crunchy piece of food, or an external mouth injury, like a fall or an accidental kick when children are horseplaying. It’s not wise to try and ignore a toothache. Even if it seems minor at first, it can be a symptom of a much larger issue or become painful enough to disrupt your lifestyle. Dr. Cassidy Phagan can determine the cause of your toothache and resolve it before it gets worse.
• Gum pain: Gum pain is usually a symptom of a more significant problem, such as a bacterial infection or tooth decay. Additionally, it can be painful enough to bring your entire life routine to a halt. Our team can pinpoint the issue and fix the pain and the potential for it to spread.
• Jaw swelling: Your jaw is a vital part of your overall dental system, so when it’s damaged, that damage can also affect the surrounding tissue, as well as your teeth and gums. If your jaw is swollen, it’s likely due to a bacterial infection, and one that can spread throughout the mouth. Trust the Wicker Park Dental Studio team to reduce the swelling and eliminate this infection.
• Crown and filling replacements: Crowns and fillings exist to protect your teeth from further decay and damage, allowing you to use them like normal after their installation. However, it’s possible for them to be lost, especially if the decay continues or if the material isn’t well-chosen. It can be painful and dangerous if this happens, and replacing them quickly is crucial to avoid worse damage.
• Tooth repair: Teeth can be damaged in multiple ways, many of which leave lasting cracks or chips. These damages can be distressing for a number of reasons. It can be hard to eat, brush, and floss, and it may make you feel self-conscious about your smile. Dr. Cassidy Phagan can repair your tooth so that you can smile openly again.
• Tooth replacement: Some damages are so bad that you can’t use the tooth anymore. There are also tooth knockouts, in which the tooth is lost to an injury or decay. In both cases, getting a tooth replacement is vital to having a healthy mouth and a full smile. Our team will clear out the damaged area, extract the decayed tooth if necessary, and provide you with a replacement.
• Root canal: If tooth decay spreads too far into the gums, a root canal is necessary to stop it from getting even worse. Root canals are considered the most painful dental procedure someone might have to go through, but they’re essential. While the days following the procedure might come with some discomfort, the procedure itself is relatively painless. The team at Wicker Park Dental Studio will do their best to keep you relaxed and comfortable during the process.

Avoiding An Emergency

To avoid an emergency visit to your dental office, it’s important to take good care of your teeth. Brush and floss regularly, avoid foods that could cause damage through decay or injury, and visit your family dentist regularly. Get any issues addressed quickly, and don’t attempt to fix any problems on your own.
