Assessing a chipped tooth
When you've got a chipped tooth, it generally announces itself with discomfort, sensitivity, or a noticeable alteration in your bite. Sometimes, a large chip can hint at more profound dental issues.

What to do when something's stuck in teeth
In case an intraoral foreign object lodged between your teeth can't be removed despite your efforts, you should not hesitate to seek our 24/7 dental care services. Avoid using hard grains as they may damage your teeth. Stick to gentle teeth cleaning methods at home. We're always ready to provide assistance.
Emergency tooth removal near you
Deciding if a tooth extraction is necessary involves looking for signs like a severe broken tooth, extreme inflammation or a threatening periapical abscess. Complications may arise on pre-existing dental work; for instance, nearby restorations might be disturbed. But don't worry, these can be addressed. If you're experiencing extreme discomfort, book an emergency dental appointment in Seattle with us. We're prepared for immediate tooth extraction to alleviate your pain.
Diagnosing severe toothache
Although a toothache often signals a dental problem, it's not always the case. Sometimes other issues, including stress, can trigger toothaches. Stress-related clenching or grinding could indeed lead to discomfort. If you're in pain, consider taking ibuprofen or naproxen, eat soft foods, and schedule an emergency dentist appointment.
Saving a displaced tooth
When you dislodge a tooth, it's crucial to seek immediate care. Our office offers treatments such as oral surgery for severe cases, or if the tooth is merely chipped, we can repair it with a composite filling. Notably, activities like skating carry risk for dislodging a tooth. If you're in pain, our 24-hour endodontist provides expert pain management. Contact us right away for emergency treatment.
Emergency root canal treatment you
Dentists often recommend a root canal when there's an infection deep within your tooth. This procedure helps preserve your oral health by removing bacteria from an infected root, preventing reinfection, and saving the natural tooth. Unlike a tooth extraction, where an impacted tooth causing discomfort is completely removed, a root canal navigates through blood vessels within the tooth, cleaning and sealing it to avoid further damage. Our 24-hour dental specialists are always available to address these needs near you.

Does lying down make a toothache worse?
No, a toothache is not affected by the position of your body; it may feel worse when lying down due to decreased distractions from other positions. However, drinking or eating cold or hot food items can make toothaches much worse.
How long can a tooth infection go untreated?
A tooth infection can go untreated for a long time, however this is not recommended. If left untreated the infection can spread and create other health related issues. Try to seek dental help as soon as possible if you have experienced any symptoms of an infected tooth.
Should I visit the emergency room for dental emergencies?
If you are experiencing severe pain, swelling or infection in your mouth, it is best to visit the emergency room right away. For other dental problems such as a broken tooth or braces-related issues, call your dentist immediately for an appointment.
Are cavities dental emergencies?
No, cavities are not dental emergencies. However, if left untreated they may eventually require more serious, timely treatment such as a root canal or even extraction of the affected tooth. Therefore it is important to visit a dentist regularly for check ups and cavity prevention.
