Dental emergencies can range from a broken or knocked out tooth (including a filling or crown falling out), to a broken jaw, lip or tongue laceration, or purely severe pain in your mouth (gums or teeth, including swelling around those areas, which may indicate abscess or infection). Whatever the circumstance, if you feel you’re in the midst of a dental emergency, you should contact Carousel Dental immediately. Depending on the type of emergency and timeframe, the more swift action, ensures the greater likelihood of keeping the teeth involved, or the best resolution. So when you call, aim to be thorough in accurately describing your situation where possible, so the dentist can prioritise and prepare for your arrival in advance, based on your explanation. And if you’re unsure about what constitutes a dental emergency, don’t hesitate to consult your dentist direct.
