There are different issues that can pop up at the drop of a hat, impacting your smile in a variety of ways. In some cases, you may realize that your oral health is in jeopardy and that you probably need help right now. In others, you may note that you’ve just experienced some sort of damage and while you probably don’t need emergency care, you do need our help fixing the problem. Today, our Conroe, TX team would love to help you feel more informed and comfortable in regard to what you should do in the case of multiple possible sudden concerns. (Hint: The answer is nearly always to contact us to schedule a dental visit!).
A Smile Emergency!
What to do, what to do? One moment, all is well, the next, you are experiencing a serious problem and your oral health is at risk. This could include so many different things, such as a broken tooth, pain that is out of this world, minor bleeding, a dislodged tooth, and the list certainly continues. While part of your thinking may direct you to try to pretend like everything is okay, your instincts will likely kick in to let you know that this is an urgent situation! What you should do when you feel you require immediate care is call us for an emergency dental visit. We are well aware that problems sometimes show up during the most inopportune of moments, which is why we are here to take your call and to help!
A Chipped Tooth
While it may feel like an emergency, this is probably not one. If you were to break or crack your tooth, then yes, we would want to see you immediately! However, since a chip is just minor and doesn’t actually negatively impact your oral health, we instead suggest that in the case of a chip, you call us. Tell us about the chip. Let us know that you are ready to take care of the problem and we will schedule a dental visit for you. What you can expect: We will speak with you about the ways cosmetic care can fix the problem. It may seem like a horrendous problem to you but fixing this type of esthetic damage is very easy with the use of dental bonding (or, we may place a veneer). No matter what, it isn’t worth stressing over!
