Why Is a Chipped or Cracked Tooth a Dental Emergency?

Even if your chipped or cracked tooth isn’t causing you pain, it’s important to consider it a dental emergency and have it repaired right away. Inside the tooth, the internal, delicate areas are now potentially exposed to the wide array of bacteria in the mouth. This can quickly result in decay and even cause you to lose the tooth or require root canal therapy. So don’t wait if you crack or break a tooth or notice it’s chipped. This also goes for a tooth that’s been knocked out. A tooth can be saved by being implanted soon enough after it has been knocked out. But time is critical, this is why it’s important we move fast to address the dental emergency in Naples. The ideal window for implantation and successfully saving the tooth is within 30 minutes of the tooth being knocked out.

FAQs Emergency Dental Care Naples

How do I know if my toothache is serious?

If your toothache is persistent, severe, accompanied by swelling, fever, or pain that radiates to the ear or jaw, it could be a sign of a serious dental issue such as an infection or abscess. It is advisable to seek prompt dental attention to assess and address the underlying cause.

How do you know if a toothache is an infection?

A toothache may be indicative of an infection if it is accompanied by symptoms such as swelling, redness, persistent throbbing pain, and sometimes the presence of pus around the affected tooth or gums. Consulting with a dentist for a proper examination and diagnosis is crucial if infection is suspected.

Will a rotten tooth eventually stop hurting?

A rotten tooth may temporarily stop hurting if the nerve inside the tooth dies, but this doesn't mean the problem is resolved. The underlying infection or decay persists, and without proper dental treatment, complications can arise, leading to more severe pain and potential systemic health issues.

What should I do if I knock out a tooth before I reach the dentist?

Gently rinse the tooth without scrubbing. Try to place it back in its socket, or keep it in a container of milk or saliva. Seek dental care immediately, ideally within 30 minutes, for the best chance of saving the tooth.

Does BayView Dental Arts offer same-day emergency appointments?

Yes. We prioritize emergencies and offer same-day appointments for immediate attention and relief whenever possible.

What if my emergency happens after office hours?

Call our office right away. We will provide instructions on how to proceed, including whether to go to the nearest emergency room or wait until we reopen.

Can I take over-the-counter medication for relief before my appointment?

Over-the-counter options may provide temporary relief, but they do not address the underlying issue. It’s important to schedule an appointment as soon as possible.
