Our emergency dental care aims to fix many common problems people could have that must be fixed in a pinch. What constitutes a dental emergency? Most issues have to do with a broken or chipped tooth, broken previous restorations, and trauma which can happen in a hurry for patients. These situations typically lead to restorative work for patients to replace and repair front teeth as well as back teeth. They also can lead to root canal therapy, almost always completed in one office visit.
Tooth pain is another legitimate reason for emergency treatment. Typically, these patients need root canal therapy or extractions of teeth, all completed at our office at these emergency appointments. Other reasons for emergency dental care could be broken dentures or gum pain or swelling. Broken dentures can typically be repaired temporarily but ultimately are replaced.
Kathleen - Emergency Dental Patient
“My journey at Angstadt Family Dental began as an emergency. One of my back teeth broke off at work on a Friday morning. I thought I would need to wait until Monday to have something done. Dr. Angstadt was willing to come in on Friday evening with one of the staff to help me. So many of my teeth were in need of help. I was always embarrassed by my smile. Now I have a beautiful smile and am so happy with my results. This practice is family-oriented and you are treated like family. All the staff is very caring and helpful. You will not be disappointed.”
Pain-Free Emergency Dental Care
Don’t let oral pain disrupt your normal daily activities. For us as a dental office, we simply want to be there for our patients and people of our community as much as possible. In this, we can help people gain confidence in their smile, eating and chewing, and get them out of pain when they need the dentist most.
Dr. Eric always says:
“Toothaches and dental emergencies, unfortunately, don’t wait until Monday through Friday 9-5! This is why we feel so grateful and lucky to be able to help our patients through emergency treatment on weekends and after hours.”
Focus On Preventative Care
One way to prevent dental issues in the future, especially if you are due for a cleaning or check-up and haven’t been able to see your dentist, is to focus on home care! Brushing and flossing after each meal with a soft bristled toothbrush can limit dental caries or cavities and also help current unsolved problems from progressing quickly. Using an antiseptic mouth rinse like Listerine or crest pro-health can also be very helpful in limiting intraoral bacteria and limiting the chance of new caries or cavities. Remember, the best care is preventive care and there’s no one to do that better than yourself!
The experts at Angstadt Family Dental have a number of methods that can help you relax and feel comfortable while providing emergency dental care that gets you out of pain as quickly as possible. Whatever you may need or whatever question you may have, always feel comfortable calling and speaking with one of the doctors. We are more than happy to help!
