5 Tips for Preventing a Dental Emergency

While we are always here to care for you during a dental emergency, it would be better if you avoid one in the first place. Here are few tips that may help:

  1. Stay on schedule with your routine dental visits – seeing the dentist twice a year for routine dental exam and cleaning can help detect some issues early on, before they become an emergency.
  2. If you are into eating hard and sticky candy, remember that it is rough on your teeth, and may wear them down or loosen them. Adding the sugar into the equation makes this one type of food that is best to avoid.
  3. If you play sports – wear a mouth guard. You can get one in store or from us. We offer custom fitted mouth guards that will be more comfortable and better protect your teeth.
  4. If you often bite your nails, chew on other objects or cut things with your teeth – please stop! Treat your teeth with care and respect – it will go a long way in preventing dental emergencies.
  5. Practice excellent oral care regime at homebrush your teeth, floss daily and use interdental brushes as necessary. This will help reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.

A dental emergency is never convenient and can often involve high risk of permanent tooth loss, severe gum bleeding or severe tooth pain. It can be distressing, cause persistent pain, potential long-term damages and sometimes require costly invasive dental procedures. By taking preventive steps, you can reduce your chances of having to go through this experience and seek emergency dental care.
