Dental emergencies can happen unexpectedly, and Prairie Winds Dental is here to provide prompt, compassionate care when you need it most. Dr. Neha Sharma and our experienced team are equipped to handle a range of urgent dental issues, from severe pain and broken teeth to abscesses and knocked-out teeth. Our goal is to address your dental emergency quickly and effectively, relieving pain and restoring your oral health as soon as possible.
What is Emergency Dentistry?
Emergency dentistry involves immediate treatment for unexpected dental issues that can’t wait for a regular appointment. Delaying treatment for dental emergencies may lead to worsening pain, infection, or further damage. If you’re experiencing sudden pain or discomfort, Prairie Winds Dental is ready to help.
Common Dental Emergencies We Treat
We handle a wide range of dental emergencies, including:
- Severe Tooth Pain
Sudden, intense tooth pain may indicate a serious issue like an infection or deep decay. We’ll quickly identify the cause and provide relief through treatments such as root canal therapy or tooth extractions if necessary. - Broken or Chipped Teeth
Whether due to an accident, sports injury, or biting down on something hard, broken teeth can be painful and affect the appearance of your smile. We offer solutions such as dental crowns and bonding to restore your tooth. - Knocked-Out Teeth
If a tooth has been completely knocked out, immediate action is essential. Place the tooth in milk or a saline solution and contact us right away. In some cases, we may be able to reattach the tooth. - Lost or Loose Fillings
A lost filling can lead to sensitivity and discomfort, as well as expose the tooth to further damage. We can replace the filling with durable, tooth-colored materials to restore both function and aesthetics. - Abscessed Tooth
A dental abscess is a serious infection that can cause intense pain, swelling, and fever. Immediate treatment is necessary to prevent the spread of infection. Our team will address the abscess and may perform a root canal or extraction as needed.
