Emergency Dental Care in Calgary, AB
Most people know what to do in the event of a medical emergency like a cut or a sprain, but what about emergencies that involve dental care? At Comfort Care Dentistry, your comfort is our priority. Come visit us for any emergency dental treatment that you need.
Some of the most common types of mouth injuries include cracked, broken, or knocked out teeth which can be caused by a fall or a sports-related injury, or even from biting on a piece of food that is too hard.
Depending on the severity of the injury — and where the tooth is located — it’s possible that a chipped tooth can wait to be seen by your dentist during normal business hours.
But, if there’s a large piece of tooth missing or it’s been knocked out completely, you should seek immediate medical attention sooner rather than later through a practice experienced in emergency dental care such as Comfort Care Dentistry in Calgary, AB.
Often, the problem won’t be as clear-cut as a knocked out or broken tooth. You might be experiencing severe tooth pain, most commonly caused by an abscess. Either way, our practice can provide treatment.
Here are a few questions to ask yourself if you’re unsure whether or not you have a true dental emergency:
- Am I bleeding from the mouth?
- Am I in severe pain?
- Do I have any loose teeth?
- Have I been hit in the face or mouth?
- Do I have any swelling or numbness in the mouth or facial area?
- Do I have any bulges, swelling or knots on my gums?
If you answered yes to even one of these questions, you might be having a dental emergency and should give Comfort Care Dentistry in Calgary, AB a call. We leave slots open in our schedule for emergency situations, because we’ve been there too.
We also have easy book appointments available, so you can get in when it works best for you. Whatever your needs may be, let us know! Visit our office so you can learn why Comfort Care Dentistry is the dentistry where your neighbors go!
