Advice for common dental emergencies in Kent
Some of the more common dental emergencies that we see with patients from Bexley, Northfleet, Crayford, Dartford and Kent include:
Toothache
A persistent toothache can be agonising. While awaiting your emergency dentist appointment, take paracetamol for pain relief.
Avoid extremely hot or cold foods and drinks. Rinse your mouth with warm salty water to ease discomfort. A cold compress may also help alleviate pain.
A knocked-out-tooth
This type of dental emergency is time critical – the quicker you can see the emergency dentist, the more likely the chance of saving your tooth. It is important that you phone the emergency dentist as soon as possible and let them know what has happened.
A dental abscess
A dental abscess is an infection causing pain, swelling, inflammation, and pus in your tooth, gum, or jaw.
While waiting for your emergency appointment, take paracetamol for pain relief and rinse your mouth with warm salty water. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids. Contact us promptly to schedule an emergency visit with our Northfleet dentist.
