Knowing what to expect when you get to their\npractice in the midst of a dental emergency can help you feel more prepared in\nthese overwhelming situations. Here are the most common procedures used to\nprovide urgent dental care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental Bonding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you sustain slight damage to your teeth, such as a minor\nchip or crack, your dentist may be able to address the situation with dental\nbonding. This composite resin can be used to recement broken pieces of enamel back\ninto place or even replace them entirely. In the end, your tooth will look good\nas new and will be protected against sensitivity and bacteria. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental Crown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In situations where a tooth has been severely broken or is\nsuffering from extensive decay, a dental crown may be the best solution. These\ntooth-shaped caps are custom-made to slip over the existing structure to restore\nits strength, health, and appearance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gum Disease Therapy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dental emergency includes gums that are inflamed,\nsore, and bleed easily, you may have an oral health condition known as gum\ndisease. This bacterial infection is the leading cause of tooth loss in the US,\nbut its earliest stages can be reversed if caught early enough. Your dentist will\nrecommend gum disease therapy to contain the infection before it can cause\npermanent damage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Root Canal Therapy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Severe toothaches caused by serious infections or injury can\nbe quickly and comfortably relieved with root canal therapy. This procedure\nremoves the damaged and infected tissues from inside of your tooth to ease pain\nand prevent the issue from spreading to the surrounding teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tooth Extraction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your Skokie dentist will always do everything they can to preserve\nyour natural tooth with treatments like dental crowns and root canal therapy. However,\nif there are no other viable options to save your tooth, they may recommend an\nextraction. While this procedure will entirely remove whatever issue you\u2019re\nfacing, you\u2019ll need to decide on a tooth replacement option to prevent future\ncomplications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tooth Reattachment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your tooth is knocked out, your dentist may be able to\nreattach it if you act quickly and correctly. Avoid touching the tooth\u2019s\ndelicate roots and store it in milk or saliva to ensure it remains in good\nshape. It\u2019s essential that you see your dentist within 30-60 minutes\u2014 waiting\nany longer than that significantly diminishes the likelihood of saving it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental emergencies are often sudden and overwhelming.\nHowever, knowing which procedures your dentist may suggest when you reach their\noffice can help relieve some of your stress!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>If you or a loved one has a dental emergency in Skokie,\nIL, you can rely on Weiss Dental Arts Comprehensive, Aesthetic, &amp; Implant\nDentistry for the fast, compassionate, and quality care you need.
