Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is considered a dental emergency?
A dental emergency includes any oral health issue that causes severe pain, bleeding, swelling, infection, or trauma to the teeth, gums, jaw, or mouth. Common examples include intense toothache, knocked-out teeth, broken or cracked teeth, abscesses, facial swelling, and injuries to the lips or tongue. If you’re unsure, it’s best to contact us for advice.
Do you offer same-day emergency dental appointments?
Yes. We reserve dedicated emergency appointment slots each day to ensure patients experiencing urgent dental problems can be seen as quickly as possible. Please call us on (07) 3349 9334 so we can arrange the earliest available appointment.
What should I do if I have a severe toothache?
A severe toothache can indicate infection, decay, or nerve damage. Rinse your mouth gently with warm salt water and avoid chewing on the affected side. Do not apply aspirin directly to the tooth or gums. Contact TC Dental immediately so we can assess the cause and provide relief.
What should I do if a tooth is knocked out?
If a tooth is knocked out, time is critical. Gently pick it up by the crown (not the root), rinse it briefly with water if dirty, and try to place it back into the socket if possible. If not, keep it in milk or saliva and contact us immediately. Prompt treatment improves the chances of saving the tooth.
Is a broken or chipped tooth a dental emergency?
Yes, especially if the tooth is painful, sharp, or bleeding. Even minor chips can worsen if left untreated. Our team can assess the damage and restore the tooth to protect it from further complications.
What should I do if my face or gums are swollen?
Swelling in the gums, face, or jaw may indicate a dental infection or abscess, which requires urgent attention. Do not apply heat to the area. Contact us immediately so we can provide appropriate treatment and prevent the infection from spreading.
Can you treat lost crowns or fillings in an emergency?
Yes. Lost or damaged crowns, fillings, or other dental restorations can expose the tooth and cause pain or sensitivity. Our on-site dental laboratory allows us to repair or replace many restorations efficiently, often with minimal delay.
Do I need to go to the hospital for a dental emergency?
Most dental emergencies can be treated by a dentist. However, if you experience severe facial trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, or difficulty breathing, you should go to the nearest hospital emergency department first. For all other urgent dental concerns, contact TC Dental for immediate advice.
What pain relief options are available for dental emergencies?
We focus on identifying and treating the underlying cause of pain. Where appropriate, our dentists may also provide pain relief advice or prescriptions to help manage discomfort until treatment is completed.
How can I prevent dental emergencies?
Regular dental checkups, good oral hygiene, and early treatment of dental issues significantly reduce the risk of emergencies. Wearing mouthguards during sports and addressing tooth pain early can help prevent more serious problems.
