Dental Emergency

Emergency Dentist in Hazlet,NJ

What is a dental emergency?
Broken or chipped teeth
Trauma or accident can lead to broken teeth and intense dental pain
Severe toothache for any reason
Dental abscesses, exposed dental nerves, and dislodged fillings and crowns can cause severe tooth pain that requires emergency dental treatment by a qualified dentist.

Inflammation of gum tissue
A bacterial infection that reaches the gum tissue can damage gum tissue around the tooth and the jawbone itself. It is essential to stop the disease before it causes significant damage.

Why is good oral health important?
Dental health is an integral part of your overall health and appearance. A smile showing white, even teeth gives the impression of youth and good health.

Good oral health ensures your mouth is clean, and bacteria don’t have a chance to travel to your respiratory or digestive systems or even enter your bloodstream through microscopic cuts in your mouth.

Oral health is also a window to your general health. A dentist can refer you for further investigation to specialists if he notices changes in your mouth that could be symptoms of other diseases.
Home remedies for toothaches

Toothaches need to be investigated by an emergency dentist immediately, but you can try to alleviate discomfort with home remedies until your dental care appointment.

Clove oil is a natural anesthetic, making it an effective emergency treatment for toothaches. Salt water has antibacterial properties that help kill bacteria in the mouth while removing any debris that may be aggravating the pain.

An ice pack may be an effective pain reliever as it constricts blood vessels where it is applied, numbing pain and reducing inflammation. Over-the-counter painkillers are effective as an emergency treatment for toothaches.
