Emergency Dental Care in Leduc

If you have lost one or more teeth in an accident, it’s important to try to find the whole tooth or the broken piece.

If you successfully find the tooth and it is intact, gently rinse it in cold water and try to reposition it in its socket. If it won’t stay in position, preserve the tooth in a glass of milk. Then, immediately contact our office. Depending on the condition of the tooth, the condition of your gums, and how long it has been detached, we may be able to reroot the tooth without the need for restorative dental care.

If you have a sudden and piercing toothache, contact our office as soon as possible. This can be a sign of an abscess, or severe tooth infection, or exposed nerve or root.

We’ll do everything in our power to help: from making an emergency appointment to suggesting pain relief treatments.

Although a lost filling or crown may not constitute an emergency, it can still cause pain and discomfort. If this happens, contact our clinic; depending on the severity of the situation, we will determine whether you need immediate attention or if an appointment made at your convenience will suffice.
