5 Examples Of A Dental Emergency: When To Call

1. The definition of emergency dental care can vary from one practice to the next, so it's important to know when it's appropriate to contact an emergency dentist in Calgary. At Pathways Dental Clinic, we define a dental emergency as any situation that is causing the patient pain or is of concern to the patient. We want all of our patients to err on the side of caution and contact us regarding any and every concern, whether it's pain from an abscessed tooth, a dental injury, or a lost or broken dental appliance.

2. Our Calgary emergency dentist is available around-the-clock to address serious issues that include broken teeth, severely chipped or damaged teeth, or a knocked out tooth. In a situation such as one of these, time is of the essence to save the tooth and prevent soft tissue injury from jagged or broken teeth.

3. Please call our emergency dental clinic during regular business hours or after hours if you're in pain from a toothache, an infection, recent treatment, or for any other reason. When you call, we'll provide over-the-phone pain management advice as well as information about how soon our dentist can see you. We know that it's not always possible to budget for a dental emergency, which is why we offer financing options to help you pay for treatment over time.

4. Minor sensitivity to heat or cold can sometimes wait for a scheduled appointment, however, severe tooth sensitivity may not be able to wait if it's causing you pain or an inability to sleep at night. We'd rather that you visit us than try to wait out the pain; we'll do everything we can to get you in to see our dentist quickly.

5. Calgary emergency dentistry services can address facial swelling and redness that can cause serious concerns. If you've noticed swelling of the face or a rash following treatment, we need to see you right away to identify the cause of your reaction.
