A broken tooth, a cut to the gums or a severe toothache can happen when you\u2019re least expecting it. And when it does, you need to act fast to find relief. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ismiledentalarts.com\/meet-the-dentist.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Kassem<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is your emergency dentist in Williamstown treating your next urgent situation. Call our emergency hotline and feel confident knowing the iSmile Dental Arts team will have you back to your old self soon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tips to Remain Calm and Act Fast<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of the most common emergencies we see in our office include knocked out teeth, broken teeth, severe toothaches and oral lacerations. No matter the situation, the most important thing to remember following a dental emergency is to keep your cool. Easier said than done, you\u2019re probably thinking &#8212; but not when you\u2019re prepared with some basic information. Here we\u2019ve compiled a list of the things you should do to help you stay calm throughout your next dental emergency.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Save our number <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Time is of the essence in any dental emergency. Here\u2019s something you can do right now &#8212; program our number into your phone. When you\u2019ve got our line at your fingertips, you\u2019ll be more likely to receive the help or advice you need in those first crucial moments following a dental emergency. Our number is <\/span><b>(856) 341-9472<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It won\u2019t hurt to display it prominently in your home, too.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slow the bleeding<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If significant bleeding occurs as a result of a broken tooth or a cut to the cheeks, lips or gums, try to stop the blood flow by applying gentle but firm pressure with a clean gauze or cloth. If bleeding doesn\u2019t slow or subside after 10 minutes, you\u2019ve got a more serious problem. Head straight to the emergency room for immediate attention. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take pain medicine<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To control discomfort, take an over-the-counter pain medicine as directed. Don\u2019t put the medicine directly onto the tooth or gum, as this action is likely to burn or injure the area. But if you\u2019ve got a toothache that doesn\u2019t subside with ibuprofen or aspirin, you\u2019ve probably got a serious infection in the tooth &#8212; call your dentist immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reduce swelling<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After you experience a tooth break or a blow to the face, control the swelling that\u2019s to come by applying an ice pack in 10-minute intervals until you can reach the dentist\u2019s office. Place the pack to the affected cheek for 10 minutes, then remove for 10 minutes. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Floss for toothaches<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many times, toothaches are caused when something gets lodged between teeth. It\u2019s especially common in children. To see if that\u2019s the case with your toothache, first rinse your mouth, floss carefully around the affected area and then rinse again. Don\u2019t use anything other than floss to perform this step. If your toothache remains, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ismiledentalarts.com\/contact.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">contact the emergency dentist<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> immediately. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s no planning for dental emergencies.
