Toothaches and oral pain
Is there so much pain from your tooth or teeth that it is hard to eat? Gentle Dental Care can help. There are many causes of toothaches and other oral pain, and we will conduct a thorough exam to discover the cause and craft a treatment plan that is right for you. Fillings, root canals, tooth extractions, and medications are typical treatments for tooth pain. Regardless of the cause, Gentle Dental Care takes pain and discomfort seriously, and your comfort & relief is our utmost priority.
Tooth and gum infections
If you are experiencing signs of a dental infection, you should contact Gentle Dental Care immediately. Signs of infection include pain, bad breath, and possibly a low-grade fever. Bacterial infections can cause serious problems, including irreversible gum disease and tooth loss. Whatever the cause of the infection may be, rest assured Gentle Dental care will do address your concern with the care and expertise you deserve.
Damaged and loose teeth
If your tooth is broken, chipped, cracked, or became loose to due to physical injury, you need to seek help from one of our emergency dentists as soon as you can.
Bring your broken, chipped, and cracked tooth fragments wrapped in a wet gauze or towel to your appointment at one of our Gentle Dental Care offices. We may recommend cosmetic applications such as veneers and crowns, or other treatments such as fillings to cover up damaged teeth.
If you have lost a tooth, try to reinsert the loose tooth back into its socket and use a clean wash cloth to hold the tooth in place at its crown. Dirty teeth should have their roots cleaned, not scrubbed (as to not remove any tissue). If the tooth cannot be reinsert it, hold the tooth under the tongue and go to a dentist’s office as soon as possible.
Bleeding and irritated gums
Bleeding and swollen gums are generally caused by a gum infection, such as gingivitis, or gum diseases such as periodontal disease. Gentle Dental’s Emergency Care Team will assess your mouth and prescribe a treatment plan. Gum concerns can be short-term or long-term, and we will advise you on the best path forward, depending on your gum’s condition and prognosis.
Dentures and dental appliance repair
Occasionally, dentures (and other dental appliances) can become compromise and break. Gentle Dental Care offers denture repair, denture relining, and denture replacement services.
