Types of Dental Emergencies We Treat in Our Chatswood Clinic
- Tooth pain may be constant, throbbing, or sharp when eating. Causes include deep decay, cracks, or gum infection. We use clinical tests and X-rays to locate the problem. Treatment may involve fillings, root canal therapy, or extraction. Pain relief and antibiotics may also be provided if required.
- A crown that becomes loose or fractures can leave the tooth exposed and sensitive. Sometimes a crown can be cleaned and re-cemented, but if damaged it usually needs replacement. Temporary materials may be used to protect the tooth until a new crown is fitted.
- Abscesses cause swelling, severe pain, and often fever or a bad taste in the mouth. They result from bacterial infection and require urgent treatment. Antibiotics may provide temporary relief, but the source must be treated with root canal therapy or extraction. Early care prevents spread of infection.
- Food or other objects lodged between teeth can cause pain, swelling, or gum irritation. Patients are advised not to force objects between teeth as this may cause damage. Our team can carefully remove the obstruction and check for cavities or gum issues contributing to the problem.

What to do if you have a Dental Emergency?
Severe pain
Avoid chewing on the painful side and rinse with warm salty water. Take pain medication if suitable and safe for you. Note what triggers the pain, such as hot or cold, and share this with your dentist. Arrange an urgent dental appointment for proper diagnosis.
Lost crown
Do not eat sticky foods on the affected tooth. Keep the crown safe and bring it to your appointment. Avoid trying to glue it yourself. Rinse after meals to keep the tooth clean. Book an urgent visit to re-cement or replace the crown.
Object stuck between teeth
Do not use sharp objects to try to remove it. Gently floss if possible, but stop if it causes pain. Rinse with warm water to clean the area. If the object does not dislodge, see a dentist immediately for safe removal.
Jaw discomfort
Rest your jaw by avoiding very hard or chewy foods. Apply a cold compress to reduce soreness. Over-the-counter medication may help manage symptoms. If the pain persists, book an appointment to investigate possible dental or jaw joint issues.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Often yes, as many causes of tooth pain are hidden beneath the surface. An X-ray allows us to detect deep decay, cracks, or infections that aren’t visible to the eye. While simple problems may not require one, your dentist will recommend the best approach during your exam.
- Eruption cysts are harmless swellings that appear as teeth are breaking through the gums. They often resolve on their own, but a dentist should confirm the diagnosis. If there is pain, swelling, or concern, it is best to book an appointment to ensure no other issues are present.
- Mild bleeding is normal during the first few hours after a tooth is removed. Biting on gauze usually helps stop it. If bleeding is heavy or continues for several hours, further care may be needed. Following your dentist’s aftercare instructions will help support proper healing.
- Sometimes infection or inflammation can spread across the jaw or gums, making it hard to identify the exact tooth causing the pain. Only a dentist with X-rays and a full exam can pinpoint the cause. Prompt treatment will help relieve discomfort and prevent the problem from worsening.
- Modern dentistry uses effective local anaesthesia to ensure you remain comfortable during treatment. Most patients feel no pain, though you may notice some pressure or movement. Your dentist will always check that you are fully numb before starting, and we will adjust care if you feel any discomfort.
