Same-Day Emergency Dental Treatments in Heartland, TX
We can handle various types of emergency dental services, in our Heartland, TX office including the following.
Root Canal Therapy
Tooth pain often results from decay that has gone beyond the enamel and dentin into the pulp, where the tooth’s nerves are housed. Often an emergency root canal is the best option for pain relief. Until you visit us, you can apply ice to the outside of the jaw to reduce any swelling and take ibuprofen to manage the pain.
Chipped or Broken Teeth Repair
A chipped or broken tooth is an example of a sudden dental emergency that can occur from something as simple as biting into food or being involved in a hard collision. If any pieces fall from your mouth, you can gather them in a bag and bring them to our Heartland, TX office, take ibuprofen to decrease any discomfort. Although we will make every possible effort to salvage your natural tooth, if the damage is too extensive, we may have to consider extracting the tooth entirely.
Emergency Tooth Extractions
If you are experiencing sudden or intense pain in your tooth or jaw you may need an emergency tooth extraction. If your tooth is decaying or damaged our Heartland, TX emergency dentist will evaluate your specific situation and recommend the best emergency procedure to relieve your pain.
