Emergency Dental Care

Even with an optimal oral hygiene routine in place, unexpected dental issues can arise. One of the most common problems resulting in immediate emergency dental care is tooth sensitivity. Such a situation can result from any of the following:

 

Tooth decay

Tooth decay affects your tooth enamel and affects the basic structure of your tooth. Tooth decay can lead to serious dental problems if not treated on time.

 

Cavities

When you consume sugary foods, the sugar combines with the plaque weakening your tooth and leading to cavities. The plaque particles attack your tooth's enamel, causing holes known as cavities. Though there are no symptoms in the early stages, with the help of an x-ray, our dental team can spot the cavities and suggest remedial measures for them.

 

Chipped teeth

You won't experience any pain in your chipped tooth unless the chip exposes the nerves in the interior of your tooth. When the nerves are exposed, you might encounter tooth sensitivity and pain when eating and drinking hot or cold things.

 

Gingivitis

Gingivitis is a gum disease that occurs when plaque buildup on the tooth causes inflammation of the gums. Inflamed gums can also turn red and begin bleeding if not taken care of properly. With proper care and early detection, gingivitis can be easily cured.

 

Gum issues

Like gingivitis, several other gum issues can develop if you don't maintain good oral hygiene. Consulting your dentist early on is also a great way to maintain healthy teeth and gums.

 

Abscess

A tooth abscess is caused by bacterial buildup in the form of pus in the tooth's center. Usually occurring due to tooth decay, broken, chipped, or an injured tooth, abscess causes severe toothache and inflammation. Getting the help of a dentist in such cases is the best way to avoid getting an abscess.

 

In such cases, immediate action is important to eliminate pain and reduce the risk of the condition worsening. Our dental care service in Kamloops provides a convenient option for addressing such issues quickly.
