At Authority Dental, we provide immediate dental care for toothaches, tooth decay, cracked or damaged teeth in Berkeley. Our 24/7 hotline connects you with emergency dentists close by. If you're facing a dental emergency, reach out to us for reliable, swift tooth repair services.
Diagnosing a cracked tooth
A cracked tooth can stem from various causes, such as biting down on hard food or experiencing a traumatic occlusion. A broken molar could, over time, evolve into a cracked molar. If it's left untreated, it can lead to possible infection. This underscores the importance of immediate attention and treatment near you, providing preventative care for potential complications.
Emergency tooth removal near you
Tooth extraction becomes an emergency when severe pain, extensive trauma, or infection is present, necessitating booking an emergency oral surgeon for same-day tooth extraction. Smoking or alcohol use can delay healing, complicate aftercare instructions, and impede swelling reduction. The vices can also potentially increase the risk of complications under sedation. It's advisable to halt these habits briefly post-procedure for successful recuperation.
Quick aid for foreign objects in mouth
Common symptoms of objects lodged between your teeth include discomfort, swelling, and occasional bleeding. Foods like popcorn or seeds are more likely to get wedged in there. Tight spots? Sequins on a costume can have nothing on them! Regular professional cleaning helps, but sometimes, it's a surprise visit to your local walk-in dentistry office that saves the day for optimal oral care. Swing by today if you're in need.
Emergency tooth reattachment
You should see a dentist immediately if a tooth is dislodged. Depending on the impact, such as high wind blowing debris, damage to the alveolar bone may occur. An endodontist can provide anesthesia during treatment. Post-treatment, activities like sports should be avoided. If immediate treatment isn't possible, store the tooth in milk.
Dental abscess treatment
You should promptly see a dentist when you detect warning signs of a dental abscess, like persistent pain, swelling, or a pimple-like bump on the gums. Contrary to common belief, an apical abscess doesn't always cause pain. If neglected, it can worsen, requiring an emergency endodontist appointment. To soothe discomfort, rinsing with saltwater may aid. Our office offers immediate service to alleviate your concerns.
Relief from severe toothache
Toothache symptoms can include sharp or throbbing pain, red gums, and swollen gums. Sometimes post dental treatment, toothaches can occur due to any inflammation not yet subsided, it's essential to your dental health to address these issues promptly. A saltwater rinse can often soothe symptoms until a same-day dentist consultation can be arranged to assess and treat your concern effectively.

How soon should a dentist see me in an emergency?
