We Are Here For You When You Need Us Most
Ignoring dental pain, whether sudden or ongoing, can lead to lasting damage that affects both your oral and overall health. It can be difficult to determine which issues can wait and which require immediate attention. However, severe pain or bleeding is always a sign that urgent care is needed.
Dental emergencies not only cause physical discomfort but can also disrupt daily life, making it essential to have a trusted emergency dentist on call. At Dawnshard Dental, our caring team is dedicated to providing prompt emergency care to relieve pain and restore both your smile and your health in North York, Ontario.
Select Emergency Dentistry Treatments
1. Tooth Abscess
A tooth abscess is a collection of pus caused by a bacterial infection. The most apparent symptom is intense throbbing pain in the affected area that starts suddenly and gradually worsens. Other symptoms include sensitivity to hot or cold food and beverages and facial redness or swelling. An emergency root canal is a first-line treatment for an abscessed tooth because the infection has nearly always infiltrated the dental pulp.
2. Severe Toothache
Toothaches are more than just a painful inconvenience—they’re a signal from your body that something’s wrong in your mouth. If you experience sudden, unexplained tooth pain, don’t wait—call Dawnshard Dental, and we’ll fit you into our schedule as soon as possible.
Our experienced emergency dental team is skilled in diagnosing and treating the root cause of your pain with care and precision. If your toothache is due to an infected dental pulp, an emergency root canal may be the solution to relieve the pain and save your tooth from extraction.
3.Cracked or Damaged Teeth
Sometimes, it’s immediately clear when you’ve cracked a tooth, such as when part of the tooth around a filling breaks off after biting something hard. However, cracks can also be asymptomatic or cause only mild, temporary symptoms that you might overlook. If the crack extends from the chewing surface vertically down into the pulp, a root canal can help prevent further damage.
4. Dislodged or Knocked Out Tooth
A dislodged or knocked-out tooth requires urgent care within 12 to 24 hours to reduce trauma and increase the chances of saving it. Whether caused by injury or infection, if you lose a tooth or it becomes loose, it’s crucial to see your dentist as soon as possible.
A missing tooth can impact the surrounding teeth and leave you vulnerable to infection. To minimize pain and bleeding, avoid food and drink, and rinse your mouth gently with warm water. To improve the chances of saving your tooth, place it in milk or saliva until you can see our team at Dawnshard Dental.
5. Swollen Oral Tissue
Gums that won’t stop bleeding, especially if accompanied by pain and swelling, can indicate an underlying dental or health issue. Likewise, if your mouth or jaw suddenly becomes swollen for no apparent reason, call Dawnshard Dental for emergency dentistry in North York, Ontario. An infection, irritation to your lymph nodes, or another severe issue could cause these symptoms and require immediate attention from a dental professional.
6. Dry Socket
After a tooth extraction, a protective blood clot usually forms over the underlying bone and nerves. If the clot doesn’t form or becomes dislodged, it exposes sensitive tissue, which can be extremely painful, especially when nerves are exposed. Delaying treatment can worsen the discomfort, so it’s important to call Dawnshard Dental immediately if you experience severe pain.
