Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if my face swells after a dental injury?
Place a cold compress against the outside of your cheek for short periods. If swelling is severe, getting worse, or comes with other concerning symptoms, contact a dental professional for guidance.
What can I do for a painful tooth while waiting to see a dentist?
Avoid chewing on the affected side and keep the area clean. A dentist can discuss pain relief options that may be appropriate based on your symptoms and health history.
Should I see a dentist if my tooth suddenly starts hurting?
Yes. Sudden or ongoing tooth pain can have several causes, including decay, cracks, or infection. A dental appointment can help identify the problem and determine what treatment may be appropriate.
What dental problems may need prompt attention?
You may need emergency dental care in Jacksonville for severe tooth pain, significant swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, or serious dental damage. A dentist can examine the problem and explain the next steps.
How should I clean my mouth after a dental injury?
You can gently rinse your mouth with warm water to help clear away loose debris. Avoid aggressive rinsing or touching an injured tooth or gum with your fingers.
When should I visit an emergency dentist?
Severe pain, increasing swelling, significant bleeding, and serious tooth injuries may require urgent dental care. Contact our dental office and explain your symptoms so the team can help determine how quickly you should be evaluated.
Can an emergency dentist help with severe tooth pain?
Yes. A dentist can examine the affected area and determine what is causing your symptoms. Treatment may help relieve pain by addressing the underlying dental problem.
What should I do if a tooth gets completely knocked out?
If you have a knocked out tooth, handle it only by the crown and avoid touching or scrubbing the root. Keep it moist in milk or a tooth-preservation solution and seek prompt dental care. Do not try to put the tooth back into the socket yourself.
