Common Questions About Dental Emergencies

What should I do if I have a knocked-out tooth?

If a tooth has been completely knocked out, it is important to act quickly. Gently rinse the tooth in cold water and attempt to reinsert it into the socket. If you cannot reinsert the tooth, place it in a container of milk and seek immediate dental care at Sycamore Dental.

Can a chipped tooth be repaired?

Yes, a chipped tooth can often be repaired. Depending on the severity of the chip, your dentist may be able to restore the tooth with a dental bonding or a porcelain veneer.

Can dental emergencies be prevented?

Yes, dental emergencies can be prevented by brushing and flossing twice a day, visiting your dentist at least once every six months, and avoiding harmful habits like smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.

Can a dental emergency cause a fever?

In some cases, a severe dental infection can lead to fever.
