How Do I Know If I Am Experiencing an Emergency?

At Chinook Family Dental Care, we consider any situation in which you are experiencing pain or discomfort as a dental emergency. Since a dental emergency can be a frightening experience, if you are experiencing pain from a sudden or lingering toothache, have a fractured or knocked-out tooth, or have been involved in an accident that involves your teeth and/or jaws, you should be treated by a dentist immediately.

Chinook Family Dental Care reserves time in our day specifically for dental emergencies and will accommodate both existing and new patients who are unable to see their regular dentist in a timely manner. We will offer our assistance over the phone to advise you on how to remain as comfortable as possible until you are able to be seen at our Chinook Centre Dental Office.

What Should I Do If I Am Experiencing An Emergency?

If you experience any of the following, please contact our office immediately for assistance:

  • A tooth or teeth that have been knocked out
  • Teeth that have chipped, cracked, or broken
  • Soft tissue injuries to your lip or tongue
  • Loose teeth after trauma
  • An infection that has resulted in abscessed teeth or gums that is causing pain that cannot be controlled with over-the-counter pain medications
  • Damage to a restoration such as a dental crown, filling, or bridge
  • Pain and/or discomfort after recent dental treatment

To manage these common dental emergencies, until you can visit our office, please visit CDA Dental Emergency Management.

Preventing Dental Emergencies

Prevention is the best way to avoid dental emergencies from occurring and is best achieved by booking an appointment with Dr. James Chen for a comprehensive dental exam. Your dental exam includes checking for signs of weakened teeth, loosened or aging restorations, and early signs of infection that may indicate the presence of infection and the possibility of periodontal disease.

If you participate in any type of sporting activities that could impact your oral health, we encourage our patients, regardless of their age, to wear a properly fitting, custom mouth guard while playing contact sports. Research shows that a large percentage of dental injuries are sports-related. A custom mouth guard can prevent many of these injuries from occurring.

We know that a dental emergency requires immediate attention and Chinook Centre Emergency Dentistry is one of the many dental health services that we offer at Chinook Family Dental Care.
