Types of Dental Emergencies We Treat in Our Cherrybrook Clinic

  • Even a small chip can make teeth sharp and uncomfortable, sometimes causing sensitivity to hot or cold. Minor chips may be repaired with bonding, while larger ones may require fillings or crowns.   We examine the tooth to ensure no deeper fractures are present.

  • An abscess is a serious infection that often causes swelling, pain, or a bad taste in the mouth. Antibiotics can ease symptoms temporarily, but the underlying problem must be treated through root canal therapy or extraction.   Quick treatment prevents the infection from spreading further.

  • If a filling falls out or breaks, it can leave a tooth vulnerable to sensitivity, decay, or further fracture. Depending on the extent of damage, the filling may be replaced, or a crown may be recommended.   Temporary protection can be applied until definitive care is carried out.

  • If a permanent tooth is knocked out, keeping it moist in milk or saliva and bringing it to the dentist quickly gives the best chance of saving it. Replantation is often possible if seen within an hour.   We stabilise the tooth with a splint and monitor healing closely.

  • Gum infections may cause redness, swelling, and bleeding. Left untreated, they can progress to periodontal disease and tooth loss. A dentist will check the gums, perform a thorough clean, and provide advice on ongoing care. In some cases, antibiotics may also be required.   At our Cherrybrook clinic, we keep time aside each day for urgent patients to ensure emergencies are treated promptly.

What to do if you have a Dental Emergency?

Chipped tooth


Avoid biting on the chipped tooth until it is repaired. Rinse with warm water to keep the area clean. If sharp edges are present, cover them with sugar-free gum or dental wax if available. Bring any fragments to your appointment for assessment.

 

Dental abscess


Rinse with warm salty water to help reduce bacteria. Apply a cold compress on the outside of the face to ease discomfort. Pain relievers may help, but antibiotics and dental treatment are usually required. Contact a dentist urgently, as abscesses can spread quickly.

Broken filling


Avoid hard or sticky foods on the affected tooth. Keep the area clean by rinsing after meals. Some pharmacies sell temporary filling kits that can be used for short-term relief. Book an urgent appointment to have the filling replaced properly.

 

Knocked-out tooth


Hold the tooth by the crown only, avoiding the root. Rinse it gently if dirty, but do not scrub. Place it back into the socket if possible, or store it in milk or saliva. See a dentist immediately, as timing is critical to saving the tooth.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes. Habitual grinding or clenching can cause cracked teeth, worn enamel, and jaw discomfort. A dentist can provide advice and may recommend a custom night guard to protect your teeth. Addressing the problem early helps prevent further damage.

  • It is common to feel sensitivity to hot or cold for a few days after a filling, particularly if the cavity was deep. This usually improves as the tooth adjusts. If sensitivity worsens, continues for more than a few weeks, or is triggered by biting, you should return for a review so we can check the tooth.

  • In most cases, roots need to be removed before a denture can be fitted. Leaving roots in place can make dentures unstable and uncomfortable. A dentist will examine your mouth and recommend the best approach for safe and comfortable replacement teeth.

  • Immediately. Ideally, a knocked-out tooth should be replanted within 30 minutes for the best chance of survival. Keep the tooth moist in milk or saliva until you arrive, and avoid touching the root.

  • Recovery depends on the type of extraction. Many patients feel well enough to return to work the next day, but more complex cases may require 1–2 days of rest. Your dentist will give tailored advice to ensure proper healing.
