When you have a dental emergency, you want to be treated right away. Many people go to the hospital emergency room or urgent care center. Both cater well to medical emergencies; however, dental emergencies often require specific technology and skills that are not available in an urgent care center or hospital emergency room. Many dental offices require you to schedule appointments ahead of time. Scheduling an appointment on the same day you call is often challenging. Fortunately, Sacramento Emergency Dentist is available.

Dental emergencies are best handled by a qualified dental team. At Sacramento Emergency Dentist, you will find we have an outstanding team of dental professionals to address your dental emergencies on the same day. We understand the necessity of being able to call the dentist with a dental emergency and having the opportunity to receive treatment on the same day.

Same Day Care for Dental Emergencies

Throbbing pain in your tooth or jaw can be debilitating. You may find yourself waiting in a hospital emergency room or urgent care lobby, only to be told to take some pain relievers and call your dentist the next day. This is not entirely helpful when you are in the throes of a severe toothache with swelling.

Trauma to the mouth may require stitches on the lip, which can be handled in an emergency room or urgent care setting. However, dental x-rays and other imaging can reveal trauma to the teeth that may not be visibly noticeable. The tools and technology used to adequately address dental emergencies are found in the dental office. Getting the help you need, when you need it, is vital. This is not only for comfort, but it often saves a tooth or teeth that may otherwise be lost.

Prevent Complications

Same day dental appointments can help reduce the risk of complications developing in certain situations. A broken tooth may be fine for a few days. However, during that time, the decaying process can begin. If neglected, that broken tooth may become decayed and could eventually need root canal therapy or extraction.

Mouth trauma may be obvious where the soft tissues are concerned. However, underlying trauma may be present which can cause pain in the teeth or jaws, hours or even days later. Emergency dental care includes x-rays and CT scans, when necessary. These diagnostic imaging tools can reveal problems below the surface, within the tooth and in the bone underneath the gums.

Emergency dental care can reduce the risk of complications. The Sacramento Emergency Dentist team of dental professionals works to ensure you receive the best possible dental care to minimize the likelihood of further pain or discomfort. Your dental emergency will be thoroughly evaluated. Your dentist will consult with you on the findings, and create a treatment plan to alleviate your pain and address the source of your condition.
