Emergency Dental Services
At Cambridgeport Dental, we understand that dental emergencies can happen at any time, causing pain and discomfort that requires immediate attention. Our emergency dental services are designed to provide prompt and effective care when you need it the most.
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat:
- Toothache Relief: Severe toothaches can be debilitating. Our team quickly diagnoses the cause and provides treatment to alleviate pain and address the underlying issue.
- Chipped or Broken Teeth: Whether due to an accident or biting on something hard, chipped or broken teeth need urgent care to prevent further damage and restore functionality.
- Knocked-Out Tooth: Acting quickly can save a knocked-out tooth. We provide immediate care to attempt re-implantation and preserve your natural tooth.
- Lost Filling or Crown: A lost filling or crown can expose your tooth to damage and infection. We provide quick repairs to protect your tooth and restore its function.
- Abscesses and Infections: Dental abscesses and infections are serious and require immediate treatment to prevent the spread of infection and alleviate pain.
Tooth Extractions
Sometimes, a tooth may need to be removed to preserve your overall oral health. At Cambridgeport Dental, we offer both simple and surgical tooth extractions with a focus on patient comfort and care.
Reasons for Tooth Extractions:
- Severe Decay or Damage: When a tooth is too damaged to be repaired with a filling or crown, extraction may be necessary to prevent further complications.
- Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth. Removing them can prevent these issues and improve your oral health.
- Overcrowding: In some cases, removing a tooth can help prepare your mouth for orthodontic treatment by creating space for proper alignment.
- Infection or Risk of Infection: If a tooth is at risk of infection that could spread to other parts of the mouth or body, extraction may be the best option.
Our Extraction Process:
- Consultation and Examination: We start with a thorough examination and X-rays to assess the condition of your tooth and determine the best approach for extraction.
- Anesthesia: To ensure your comfort, we administer local anesthesia to numb the area around the tooth.
- Extraction: Using specialized tools, we carefully remove the tooth while minimizing discomfort and promoting healing.
- Aftercare Instructions: We provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you manage any discomfort and ensure proper healing.
At Cambridgeport Dental, your comfort and well-being are our top priorities. If you’re experiencing a dental emergency or need an extraction, contact us immediately for prompt and compassionate care.
