Compassionate Dental Care From a Team That Understands Urgency
We've all been there – that sudden toothache that hits you out of nowhere, or the unexpected chip that appears on your front tooth right before a big event. Dental emergencies happen, and when they do, it's important to know you have someone to turn to.
At Dental Professionals in Tigard, we understand that dental emergencies can be stressful and even scary. That's why we offer same-day appointments and compassionate care to get you out of pain and back on track with your oral health. Don't hesitate to call us immediately, and we'll find a time to see you as soon as possible.
Common Dental Emergencies
- Severe Toothache: A persistent, throbbing toothache can be a sign of infection or other serious issues.
- Chipped or Broken Tooth: Whether it's from a fall or biting down on something hard, a damaged tooth needs prompt attention.
- Knocked-Out Tooth: If a tooth gets knocked out, time is of the essence! Call us right away for instructions on how to preserve the tooth and increase the chances of saving it.
- Lost Filling or Crown: A lost restoration can leave your tooth vulnerable to further damage and sensitivity.
- Abscess or Swelling: An abscess is a serious infection that requires immediate treatment.
- Bleeding Gums: Persistent bleeding can be a sign of gum disease or other underlying problems.
What Should You Do in a Dental Emergency
- Stay Calm: Help is never more than a phonecall away. We understand the urgency in getting you relief as soon as possible.
- Call Us Immediately: Our friendly team will schedule a same-day appointment for you where possible and talk you through at-home solutions you can use to find relief until we see you.
- If Possible, Manage the Situation: For a knocked-out tooth, try to gently reinsert it into the socket and hold it in place. If you can't, store it in milk or saliva. For a toothache, rinse your mouth with warm salt water and apply a cold compress to the area.
- Get to Our Office: We'll be ready to provide prompt and effective care.
