What Should I Do In A Dental Emergency?
Although teeth are hard wearing and very strong, they are also vulnerable to injury, trauma and decay. Injuries, accidents and dental problems can occur at any time. Common causes of dental pain include accidents/falls, sports injuries, trauma through fighting and abscesses caused by bacterial infections.
Emergency dental treatment is not usually necessary for a chipped tooth but if you are experiencing severe pain or it is gradually becoming worse, please phone the practice at 01422 487365 and ask to see a dentist as soon as possible.
- Stay Calm: Keeping a cool head helps you take the necessary steps more effectively.
