Dental Emergency Services Available

Our patients come to us seeking treatment for a wide variety of dental emergencies. Our team can handle any emergency, from an abrupt accident that’s knocked a tooth out, all the way to advanced decay that needs a complex treatment plan to address. Whatever the issue might be, you can rest assured that we have the means and expertise to treat it. Our services include:

• Jaw Swelling Examination – Swelling of your face, especially along the jaw is usually tied in with a dental concern. Swelling is often a symptom of infection. It is important to have any swelling addressed quickly so the true cause can be treated.
• Gum Discomfort – Pain or tenderness of your gums can be caused by a variety of different factors. The problem usually lies deep in the underlying tissue, and will require a professional diagnosis to find a path to permanent relief.
• Determining Cause of Persistent Toothache – toothaches can make small activities such as eating or drinking miserable. If you start to develop a toothache, it is important to see us sooner than later. A toothache can be a warning sign of a larger problem that needs to be taken care of. Over the counter gels will only mask symptoms and can’t provide lasting relief.
• Root Canal Service – though often misunderstood as a painful and complicated process, a root canal procedure is, in fact, relatively fast and painless. It helps to preserve your natural teeth in the face of serious damage by helping to re-establish a connection between root and tooth.
• Crown Loss – crowns are custom-molded to a tooth to ensure it is fully protected. If a crown becomes loose and falls out, you may experience immediate discomfort. It is important to call us as soon as possible so that the crown can be replaced. Failure to do so could result in further damage to the tooth. This rule also applies to fillings that come loose or fall out.
• Extractions – a tooth may need to be extracted to eliminate pain or preserve the health of surrounding teeth. A tooth that is severely damaged or decayed can become infected. To stop the risk of any infection spread and relieve pain fast, removal can sometimes be the best choice.
• Breaks, Cracks, Chips, and Knockouts – in some scenarios, such as a sports accident, you may receive a blow to the face, jaw, or mouth that causes immediate damage to a tooth or teeth. It is important to have this damage examined as quickly as possible. A knockout can be especially dangerous because it can also impact the socket, roots, blood vessels, and surrounding tissue.

Preventing Emergency Care

Dr. Green and her staff understand that a dental emergency is the last thing you want to deal with. This is why we often suggest a few tips to help our patients avoid the need for emergency services in the first place. This starts with proper dental hygiene practices at home. We are taught at an early age the importance of brushing and flossing, but many of us have a hard time sticking to a consistent routine. This is the best way to prevent damage and decay. Attending dental check-ups and cleanings also helps to prevent the need for emergency care. Committing to regular six month appointments at Coast Dental Pasadena will allow our staff to spot any changes in your dental health before they can progress to a point where an emergency service would be necessary.

Scheduling Your Appointment with Us

Dental emergencies usually get worse in time when left untreated. If you are experiencing any discomfort it is important to seek treatment as soon as you’re able. This ensures that you receive the care you need before the problem becomes more complex and painful. We are available any time at (855) 867-3691.
