What to expect at an emergency dental appointment
Assessment. The dentist examines the affected area and takes x rays if needed
Pain management. Local anaesthetic is administered to numb the area
Immediate treatment. This might be draining an abscess, placing a temporary filling, stabilising a broken tooth, or performing an extraction
Prescription. Antibiotics and/or stronger painkillers if required
Follow up plan. The dentist explains what further treatment is needed and schedules follow up appointments
Most emergency dental visits take 30 to 60 minutes. The goal is to stabilise the situation and manage pain, with definitive treatment planned for a subsequent appointment.
If a tooth cannot be saved, dental implants are the gold standard for permanent replacement.
Preventing dental emergencies
While not all emergencies are preventable, you can reduce your risk:
Regular dental check ups. Catch problems before they become emergencies
Good oral hygiene. Brush twice daily, floss daily, use fluoride toothpaste
Wear a mouthguard for contact sports or if you grind your teeth at night
Don't use teeth as tools. Avoid opening bottles, tearing packaging, or biting nails
Address problems early. Don't ignore sensitivity, mild toothache, or a loose filling
The most effective prevention is keeping up with regular dental appointments. Many emergencies could have been avoided with earlier intervention.
