Emergency Services Offered

Dental emergencies can range from a minor toothache to re-introducing a fully removed tooth. The common ground between these procedures is the need for immediate care to keep the situation from becoming worse. Dr. Wood and her team offer an array of services, including:

• Root Canal Therapy Options - Of any procedure, a root canal tends to have the most misconceptions. This procedure is quick and easy. A root canal may be necessary for instances where you risk losing a tooth due to decay or damage. This procedure can prevent any need for extraction and alleviate and prevent further pain.
• Toothache Care - A toothache can start small, such as a slight twinge of pain when you drink ice-cold water. While it may be tempting to shrug it off at the time, this can quickly grow to an issue that makes it difficult to enjoy food or drinks, hot and cold alike. When you experience a toothache, it is often a sign of a more concerning underlying problem. It is important to have this looked at as soon as possible.
• Gum Bleeding or soreness - When it comes to any issues with your gums, it is important to have this examined immediately. Bleeding and soreness can be signs of an underlying problem that needs attention.
• Extractions - In some situations, it is better to remove the tooth than try to keep it. This can be due to severe damage or decay, especially if an infection is actively involved or a likelihood. Extracting a tooth stops the infection from spreading and can reduce pain levels immediately.
• Jaw Tenderness - Your oral health involves much more than just your teeth and gums. One unsuspecting emergency to be cautious of is swelling or tenderness of the jaw. When this happens, it can be a sign that there is a possible infection in the tissues that support the teeth as well as the jaw bone itself.
• Filling or Crown Loss - Losing a filling or crown can typically draw your attention immediately. Not only do you have the actual piece that has become dislodged, but you’ll also experience a quick jump in pressure and temperature sensitivity issues. This issue will only become worse, in addition to the tooth decaying further, if left unattended.
• Chipped, Cracked, and Broken Teeth - Grinding your teeth, or biting on something hard can all lead to a variety of dental issues. The treatment for these issues varies on the severity and impact they could have on your overall dental health. Even if something seems minor, it is still beneficial to have Dr. Wood take a look to provide professional input.
• Avulsed Tooth - When a tooth is completely knocked out, there is no question that you need to contact Phoenix Endodontic Group- PV immediately. These situations can be tricky due to how unpredictable the situation can be until you are in our dentist chair. In some situations, the tooth may be reintroduced and saved, either naturally or through root canal therapy. Regardless of the outcome, it is important to have this examined for further damages to the tissue, nerves, and blood vessels that exist around the abandoned socket.

Avoiding Emergency Appointments

No one wants to think of a dental emergency, but the facts are that they can happen. Many dental emergencies simply happen, due to a loose filling, a fall from a bike, baseball to the face, or several potential accidents that simply can’t be controlled. While this is unavoidable, several emergencies could be prevented. An easy way of avoiding a dental emergency is to not only practice proper dental hygiene at home but also check in with a professional regularly. Dr. Wood at Phoenix Endodontic Group-PV suggests maintaining regular cleanings and checkups every six months. This provides a clear chart of the health of your teeth, as well as any changes that could become a concern.
