Treatment options for a broken tooth
A broken tooth often exhibits itself through sharp discomfort, difficulty chewing, and sometimes swelling near the tooth injury. The distinction between a cracked tooth and a broken one is primarily in the severity. If you have a cracked molar, you might experience occasional bouts of pain, particularly when eating. In contrast, a broken tooth usually results in continuous, often severe jaw pain or toothache, suggesting immediate professional help is required. The level of traumatic injury to the tooth remains readily apparent. Remember, ignoring it further jeopardizes oral health. Seek immediate attention from emergency dentists nearby.
Dental care for jaw pain
If you've got persistent jaw pain creeping up, it's a good idea to schedule a dental visit. Possibly, it can indicate underlying issues like issues with your sinuses or tension in your shoulders leading to headaches. Should it turn severe suddenly, don't panic, but seek urgent dental care immediately. Our Long Beach office is always here to help when you need us.
Emergency root canal near you
Pulpitis, an inflammation of the pulp inside the tooth, often causes the need for a root canal. Usually, two visits are required for a root canal in our office, but a root canal retreatment may need additional visits. Throughout the process, pain killers are often used to manage discomfort. Remember, our 24/7 emergency dentistry services in Long Beach are available if needed.
Dental abscess advice
A dental abscess certainly qualifies as a dental emergency. It can lead to severe pain and the spread of infection if not treated promptly, so it's crucial to book an emergency endodontist appointment quickly. Extraction isn't always needed, since treatment often involves draining the infection and managing tooth pain with self-care methods at home initially. Do contact us for immediate assistance.
Emergency tooth removal near you
Tooth extractions are often needed for a variety of reasons, including severe tooth decay that can’t be resolved through other methods of oral hygiene, or to make space for orthodontic treatment. Yes, a tooth extraction can indeed affect neighboring teeth if proper aftercare instructions aren't followed. Our Long Beach office encourages you to schedule an emergency dentist appointment for same-day tooth extraction services if needed.
Dental emergency for knocked-out tooth
Knocked-out teeth aren't everyday occurrences, but it's not unusual for us to see these cases in our office. When you've had a tooth knocked out, you might notice signs of infection like swelling, unusual saliva production, or dental pain - sometimes as intense as if you're chewing ice cubes. Remember, acting swiftly is critical in such emergencies, and our skilled emergency endodontist is near you ready to help. You may need an implant, a safe and reliable way to restore your smile. Visit us soon for expert care.

Does brushing teeth help toothache?
Yes, brushing your teeth can help alleviate toothaches. Brushing removes plaque from around the affected area and can reduce bacteria which can cause pain or discomfort. A soft bristled brush is recommended as hard bristles may damage enamel and gums, making your toothache worse.
Can a dentist pull a severely infected tooth?
Yes, a dentist can pull an infected tooth as it is within their scope of practice. However, first they may attempt other procedures such as root canal and antibiotics to try to save the gallic before extracting it.
Can I leave a broken tooth overnight?
No, you shouldn't leave a broken tooth overnight. It's best to seek professional dental help right away so that the issue can be addressed and treated promptly.
What happens if you don't remove a decayed tooth?
If a decayed tooth is left untreated, the decay can spread further into the pulp or root of the tooth causing even more pain and damage. It may also lead to infection and abscesses, affecting adjacent teeth and gums as well.
