Is it a dental emergency?
How to identify a dental emergency by symptoms
Dull but continuous tooth ache
Non emergency.
While uncomfortable, a dull ongoing pain is not often an emergency situation. Something is likely irritating the nerve root of the tooth.
Contact us to book an appointment at your earliest convenience.
Tooth sensitive to cold or cold drinks
Non emergency.
Possible causes include recent routine dental care, in which case, the sensitivity will pass in a few days, or dentin exposure, acidic foods, gum recession or teeth grinding.
Contact us to book an appointment at your earliest convenience.
Tooth sensitive to heat or hot liquids or foods
Possible emergency.
If the tooth is sensitive to heat, an infection may be present, and urgent care is needed. If swelling or fever is also present, emergency care is required.
Fractured tooth, broken tooth
Possible emergency.
A small break or fracture is considered urgent care. For a large or deep fracture, especially if going below the gum line, emergency care may be required. Avoid hot and cold foods and chewing in that area until the dentist sees you.
Swollen gums, swelling in mouth, swelling around tooth
Emergency.
Swelling and/or sudden intense discomfort may be caused by an infection. The area may also feel warm. Pus may be forming or visible. Apply a cold compress and

Pimple on gums, pus around tooth, pus coming out of gums
Emergency.
Pus or a pimple at the bottom part of a tooth or on the gums may be an infection or an abscess. Antibiotics and pain control may be prescribed right away, possibly followed by root canal or other treatment.
Lost a tooth in accident, tooth knocked out during sports or other activity
Emergency.
Knocked out teeth can seem to bleed quite a bit. Stay calm and apply pressure with a cold compress to reduce or control bleeding. If possible, recover lost tooth, trying not to touch root of tooth. Put tooth in glass of cold milk, or wrap in cold, wet clean cloth, and proceed to emergency care facility or local hospital.
