Dental Emergency Services at St Albans Family Dental
At St Albans Family Dental, we understand that dental emergencies can happen at any time, often causing pain and distress. Pain in your mouth is not normal and should never be ignored. Whether you're dealing with a knocked-out tooth, severe toothache, or any other dental issue, our experienced team is here to provide immediate care when you need it most.
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat:
Tooth Pain or Toothache: Severe tooth pain can indicate infection or other serious issues that need immediate attention.
Knocked-Out Tooth: Quick action is critical to save a tooth. If you've lost a tooth due to trauma, contact us immediately.
Broken or Chipped Tooth: A fractured tooth can cause discomfort and needs urgent care to prevent further damage.
Loose or Dislodged Fillings or Crowns: If a filling or crown falls out, it can expose sensitive areas of your tooth, causing pain and discomfort.
Abscess or Swelling: A dental abscess can cause intense pain and swelling, often requiring prompt treatment to prevent infection from spreading.
Bleeding Gums: Persistent bleeding or swelling of the gums could be a sign of infection and should be addressed right away.

What to Do in a Dental Emergency:
Toothache: Rinse your mouth with warm water and use dental floss to remove any food particles. Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling.
Knocked-Out Tooth: If possible, retrieve the tooth, handle it by the crown (not the root), and rinse it gently with milk. Keep the tooth moist by placing it in milk or your cheek.
Chipped or Broken Tooth: Save any broken pieces and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. Visit us as soon as possible to prevent further damage.
Abscess or Swelling: Rinse your mouth with salt water and avoid touching the affected area. Seek immediate care to prevent the infection from spreading.
