A knocked out or chipped tooth can cause quite a bit of worry in the moment, but our 24 hour emergency dentists in Vancouver, WA are here to keep your smile looking brilliant as ever.
No matter the cause of your dental issues, we're ready to offer a variety of restorative dental treatments, including implants and crowns, if needed. These procedures will not only restore your smile, they'll also help prevent future issues with other teeth.
Preventing Dental Emergencies
To prevent mouth injuries while playing sports, always make sure to wear a mouthguard. The DIY boil-and-bite kits can be useful in a pinch, but the more you play, the more you'll benefit from a custom mouthguard. Mouthguards should be used by children and adults to prevent teeth from being knocked out or chipped.
If you're an adult with a loose tooth or if you or a child is experiencing tooth pain, it's often wise to stay away from hard and sticky candies and tough foods in general. Give your mouth and teeth a break until you've had a Dentist examine your teeth. We'll be able to diagnose your pain and come up with a treatment specific to your needs at our dental office in Vancouver, WA, whether you need an extraction or other dental services.
It's important to keep in mind that while a loose, cracked or chipped baby tooth may not seem like an issue because the tooth will eventually fall out, there are still oral health risks. Baby teeth can be seen as placeholders for adult teeth, and if they fall out too early, that can affect how the adult teeth grow in. Cracked or chipped teeth will also affect a child's mouth, and untreated issues can lead to root damage.
