Toothache or dental emergency?
At Infinity Dental Clinic, Leeds, we understand that toothache can occur when you least expect it. We provide emergency dentist appointments to both our existing patients and new patients.
Toothache can be very painful and disrupt your life. Don’t worry, at Infinity Dental Clinic we are dedicated to getting you out of pain as quickly as possible.
The only reliable way to treat toothache is to see an emergency dentist, which is why we aim to see our dental emergencies on the same day.
What emergency dental treatment may I need?
During your emergency dentist appointment, we will complete a full assessment and do everything possible to relieve your toothache. Further treatment may then be recommended to permanently resolve any dental problems.
The most common dental treatments required following an emergency appointment are:
- Root Canal Treatment (endodontics)
- Periodontal therapy
- Fillings or Crowns
In some cases it may not possible to save your tooth and your Dentist may advise that an extraction is required to treat your toothache. If this is the case do not worry as at Infinity Dental Clinic we can replace missing teeth and will advise on the most appropriate treatment for you.
Causes of toothache
The main causes of toothache or dental emergency are:
- Tooth decay
- Broken or loose fillings
- Gum disease
- Abscess
- Wisdom teeth
- Infection
Please get in touch for an emergency dentist appointment if you are suffering with toothache and we will advise the appropriate treatment plan. If you need to control the pain until your appointment, Paracetamol and Ibuprofen can often work well to relieve toothache. Please only take if you have no medical contraindication and ensure you read the label, not exceeding the maximum amount.
Facial swelling
If there is any sign of a facial swelling, please contact us straight away to arrange an assessment and diagnosis. A swelling may indicate an abscess or infection. Depending on the cause of the swelling, a suitable plan can be carried out to prevent further spread of infection.
Broken denture
If your denture has broken, please keep it clean and secure and bring it to an emergency dentist appointment at our clinic, Leeds. Please do not try and repair the denture yourself as this can prevent future repairs with the dental laboratory. Usually dentures can be repaired by the following day, though this will be assessed by one of our Dentists.
Lost dental crown
If a crown has fallen out, please keep it clean, safe and secure and arrange an appointment to come as see us for an emergency dental assessment. Where appropriate, the crown can be cleaned an re cemented. If this is not possible, alternative advice will be provided for how to replace the tooth.
