Dental Emergency Old Bridge, NJ

A dental emergency is an accident or injury that affects your oral health and requires immediate attention. If you lose a tooth, develop a severe cavity, or get hit in the mouth, it’s important to seek professional treatment as soon as possible. Failing to meet with Dr. Pavlushkin and the team could mean the difference between serious oral health problems and a beautiful smile. Read on to learn more about common dental emergencies we can help with. 

Common Dental Emergencies

Dr. Pavlushkin and the team use emergency dentistry to treat a variety of oral health problems, including:

  • Toothaches
  • Knocked-out teeth
  • Chipped or broken teeth
  • Gum, tongue, and cheek injuries
  • Loose tooth
  • Oral abscesses

You might also benefit from seeing your Old Bridge emergency dentist if you have a crown or bridge that cracks, loosens, or falls out.

Lost Tooth

Carefully pick up your tooth and rinse it off in cool tap water. Once cleaned, try and place it back in the socket. If the tooth continues to wobble, tuck it inside your cheek or place it in a glass of milk, then call the team right away. They can provide you with tips to minimize pain, bleeding, or swelling on the way to the office.

Damaged Restoration

If you chip or damage a dental restoration like a crown or bridge, pick up the pieces, rinse them off, and place them in a plastic bag. Once the restoration is secure, call the team and explain the situation.

How can I prevent a dental emergency?

Dental emergencies can occur at any time, so there’s no way to prevent them entirely. Even so, there are steps you can take to significantly lower your risk. Dr. Pavlushkin and the team recommend practicing good oral hygiene, visiting our Old Bridge, NJ dentist office at least twice a year, and eating a healthy, balanced diet.

If you play contact sports like football or hockey, or you enjoy extreme activities like skateboarding or mountain biking, wear a mouthguard. These custom oral appliances can significantly reduce the risk of chips, cracks, or knocked-out teeth.

If you or a loved one experiences a dental emergency, contact Empire Dental Group of New Jersey right away. Book online, call the office at (732) 607-0909 to speak with a member of the administrative staff, or walk in during normal business hours today.
