Frequently Asked Questions
How can I prevent dental emergencies?
While not all dental emergencies can be prevented, maintaining good oral hygiene and visiting your dentist regularly for check-ups can significantly reduce the risk. Wearing a mouthguard during sports, avoiding hard foods that can crack or break teeth, and not using your teeth as tools can also help prevent common dental injuries.
What steps are taken during an emergency dental visit?
During an emergency dental visit, our first priority is to alleviate any severe pain or discomfort. We'll then conduct a thorough examination, which may include digital X-rays, to accurately diagnose the issue. Based on the diagnosis, we'll provide immediate treatment to address the emergency and discuss any further procedures that may be necessary to fully restore your dental health.
Will my insurance cover emergency dental care?
Coverage for emergency dental care varies depending on your insurance policy. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to understand your coverage. Our office staff is also available to assist with insurance questions and can help you explore financing options to ensure you receive the necessary care.
What can I do to manage pain until my emergency appointment?
While waiting for your emergency appointment, you can manage pain with over-the-counter pain relievers, as recommended by a healthcare professional. Applying a cold compress to the outside of your cheek can also help reduce swelling and discomfort. However, these measures are temporary, and seeing a dentist promptly is crucial.
How quickly can I be seen for a dental emergency?
We understand the urgency of dental emergencies and prioritize these cases with same-day appointments whenever possible. Our goal is to see you as quickly as we can to alleviate pain and address the issue to prevent further complications.
Can I visit the Periodontist & Dental Implant Center for any emergency?
Yes, our center in Hoboken, NJ, is equipped to handle a wide range of dental emergencies. Our team of specialists has the expertise and technology to provide immediate care for various urgent dental issues, from infections and trauma to sudden pain and lost restorations.
What should I do if I have a knocked-out tooth?
If you have a knocked-out tooth, time is of the essence. Try to handle the tooth by the crown (the part that's visible in the mouth) and gently rinse it without scrubbing. If possible, reinsert the tooth into its socket, or keep it moist by placing it in milk or your mouth next to your cheek. Contact our office immediately for further instructions and to schedule an emergency visit.
What qualifies as a dental emergency?
A dental emergency includes any situation that requires immediate attention to alleviate severe pain, stop ongoing tissue bleeding, or save a tooth. Common emergencies include knocked-out teeth, severe toothaches, abscesses, broken or cracked teeth, lost fillings or crowns, and injuries to the gums or cheeks.
