What To Do During a Dental Emergency
Toothache
Severe toothache can occur due to several reasons, such as infections, wisdom tooth complications, or serious tooth decay
What to do
- Rinse your mouth with warm, salty water to reduce inflammation and eliminate bacteria.
- Use floss to gently remove debris between teeth that may be causing discomfort.
- Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek if your gums are swollen.
- Contact an emergency dentist for further advice and treatment.
What not to do
- Avoid using hot water or applying heat to the area, as it can increase pain.
- Do not place painkillers or aspirin directly on the affected area to prevent irritation or tissue damage.
Lost or Loose Fillings
Losing or loosening a filling can leave your tooth vulnerable to pain and infection.
What to do
- Rinse your mouth with warm saltwater to keep the area clean.
- Cover the exposed area with dental cement or sugarless gum to protect it.
- Schedule an appointment with your dentist as soon as possible.
What not to do
- Avoid chewing on the affected side of your mouth.
- Do not attempt to glue the filling back yourself.
Bleeding Gums or Mouth Injuries
Bleeding gums or injuries to the mouth can result from trauma, gum disease, or dental procedures.
What to do
- Rinse your mouth gently with cold water.
- Apply gentle pressure with a clean gauze or cloth to stop bleeding.
- Use a cold compress on the outside of your cheek to reduce swelling.
- Visit an emergency dentist if the bleeding doesn’t stop within 10 minutes or if the injury is severe.
What not to do
- Avoid rinsing too vigorously, as this can worsen the bleeding.
- Do not ignore persistent bleeding or swelling; seek professional help immediately.
Chipped or Broken Teeth
Teeth can chip or break due to accidents, biting hard objects, or decay.
What to do
- Rinse your mouth with warm water to clean the area.
- If swelling is present, apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek.
- Collect any broken tooth fragments and store them in milk or saliva to bring to the dentist.
- Contact an emergency dentist promptly for treatment.
What not to do
- Avoid chewing with the damaged tooth to prevent further injury.
- Do not ignore sharp edges; cover them with dental wax or sugarless gum to protect your mouth.
Knocked-Out Teeth
What to do
- Gently rinse the tooth with water without scrubbing or touching the root.
- If possible, place the tooth back into its socket and hold it in place.
- If reinsertion isn’t possible, store the tooth in milk or saliva.
- Seek emergency dental care immediately, ideally within an hour.
What not to do
- Do not let the tooth dry out; it needs to stay moist.
- Avoid using regular tap water for storage, as it can damage the root.

The team at Dental & Facial Clinic are friendly and welcoming. Teresa is professional and caring, making me feel at ease. She takes time to explain what she is doing, answer questions and has a great sense of humour too.
I would definitely recommend this practice and team 😀
Rebecca Q
This was my first experience at Dental and Facial Clinic. It is one of the few dental clinics open on a Saturday. It is a nice space and very clean. Professional and friendly staff were helpful in addressing my concerns, and the clinic is well-resourced (we got a cbct done in-house, and did not need to be referred to an imaging centre which is what I had anticipated). I couldn’t recommend it more highly and will definitely be back.
Isabel D
Dr. Teresa is fantastic! The chair is super comfortable, and there’s even a TV to watch while being treated, which makes the experience much more relaxing. Highly recommend this practice for excellent dental care!
