Providing Treatment as Fast as Possible
There is no such thing as an immunity to accidents resulting in dental emergencies. Cracking your tooth while you eat lunch or crashing your bike on a hill can cause severe oral damage and pain. Whatever incident warrants immediate care, Valley Dental Group has you covered with prompt and compassionate treatment. Everyone deserves fast relief from oral trauma or pain, and our team will soothe the discomfort and restore your wellbeing. Emergency problems and injuries require immediate treatment to prevent the pain and damage from getting worse or resulting in irreparable damage to your oral cavity. Make sure you seek help from a caring team like ours with ample experience providing effective service in emergency situations. Our emergency dentistry includes the following treatments:
Root Canal Therapy
When one of your teeth has incurred damage or developed an infection in the root canal or tooth pulp – the soft tissue inside your teeth – root canal therapy may be necessary. During the procedure, we drill a hole through the top of the tooth, remove the affected tissue, clean the chamber, fill the empty space with an elastic material, and cover the tooth with a crown to seal out any chance of further infection.
Extractions
Our dental staff only performs tooth extractions when a tooth is beyond recovery by means of restorative services. During the procedure, we carefully remove the damaged or infected tooth to prevent further dental issues. If left untreated or unextracted, the tooth could cause an infection or further damage that spreads to the neighboring teeth and other tissues.
Different Causes of Dental Emergencies
Your dental emergency isn’t always a result of an accident. There are countless reasons to seek emergency dental services with issues causing serious pain, all of which require immediate attention. If you have lingering oral issues like a growing infection or nerve damage, they can develop to inflict pain or discomfort. You don’t have to endure oral pain and trauma for too long. It’s not normal for your tooth to ache. If you’ve had an accident, or you’re suffering from pain or discomfort in your mouth, give our caring dental team a call at Valley Dental Group We’ll bring you into our office for the earliest appointment time we have available. After treating and relieving your pain, our friendly staff can also educate you on additional methods you can perform to help prevent future treatment.
