• If you have a toothache, you should know the reason why you are having a toothache. One of the reasons can be infection and other reasons can be trauma or tooth decay. The dental team will assess your condition first via a physical exam or an x-ray. After the evaluation, the dentist will then perform the required dental procedure. The procedure can be root canal treatment, cleaning the carious part of the tooth, or in some cases it can be a dental extraction. 
  
• Cracks in teeth are one of the most common dental emergencies. Although it sounds like it’s a minor issue sometimes it can lead to severe dental problems such as infection. In case there is a minor chip then the dentist will smoothen the sharp edges. If there is a deep crack in the root then the dentist will plan the treatment differently. 
  
• Sometimes the teeth can get knocked out of the socket in such cases the dentist can re-implant the tooth. For re-implant of the knocked-out tooth, you must bring it to the clinic within an hour. If you are unable to reach the clinic within an hour then the treatment plan will be different. 
  
• During sports or any other activity someone can partially dislodge the tooth from the tooth socket. In such cases, the dentist can reposition the tooth if the patient reaches the clinic in an hour. Our dentists at 6ixeglintondental have expertise in dealing with such cases and restoring the tooth with the help of splinting.
  
• Dental abscess is also a dental emergency that can happen due to infection around the roots. Firstly, the dentists drain the abscess, and then root canal treatment is done. Antibiotic medications are also prescribed during this dental treatment. 
  
• While chewing on nuts or candies one can lose dental fillings or even break their restorations. The dental experts at our dental clinic can easily replace your dental fillings. In some cases, if the permanent restoration cannot be fixed on the same day a temporary solution will be given. Until the permanent restoration is ready to be cemented.
  
• Have you ever been hit by a hard ball while playing cricket? Yes, that’s also a dental emergency If you have any soft tissue trauma around your mouth. When you go to the dental emergency clinic the dentist will assess the trauma and give stitches if required. If the trauma is not severe then the dentist will prescribe some medications until the inflammation settles.
  

• If you have a toothache, use warm salt water to gargle. Sometimes toothache can be due to food impaction in between teeth. Always floss your teeth to avoid food impaction and to prevent interdental caries. Taking a pain reliever can be an option until you visit the dentist. The best option is to call and book a dental emergency appointment at 6ixeglintondental.
• If you have a chipped tooth then there are chances that the sharp edges might be irritating the soft tissues around your teeth.  You can use an orthodontic wax to cover the sharp edges until you visit the dentist. 
• Anyone can encounter minor soft tissue trauma; it is best to properly rinse your mouth with an antibacterial mouthwash. Apart from that salt water rinses are also effective in treating minor soft tissue traumas. If soft tissue is bleeding then always apply pressure with a piece of clean cotton gauze on the affected area. This should stop the bleeding within a few minutes. If the bleeding doesn’t stop then you should visit our dental clinic right away for immediate treatment.
