Intense tooth pain and abscesses are urgent dental issues that require immediate attention to alleviate discomfort and prevent complications. Our emergency services for intense tooth pain and abscesses include:

  • Thorough Examination: I’ll conduct a comprehensive examination to identify the source of the intense tooth pain. I will assess if an abscess is present.
  • Pain Management: We provide immediate pain relief measures to address intense tooth pain. We ensure your comfort during treatment.
  • Abscess Drainage: If an abscess is present, I’ll perform a gentle and effective drainage procedure to remove the pus. This will relieve pressure and reduce your pain and swelling.
  • Antibiotic Therapy: Antibiotics may be prescribed to fight the infection associated with abscesses. This will help promote healing and prevent the spread of infection.
  • Root Canal Therapy: In cases where the intense tooth pain is caused by an infected tooth nerve, root canal therapy may be recommended to remove the infection and save the tooth.
  • Tooth Extraction: If the tooth is severely damaged or cannot be saved, tooth extraction may be necessary to prevent further complications and preserve oral health.

Having foreign objects between your teeth can be uncomfortable and potentially lead to oral health issues if not addressed promptly. Our emergency services for foreign objects lodged between your teeth include:

  • Assessment and Examination: We will thoroughly assess the type and location of the foreign object lodged between your teeth.
  • Gentle Removal Techniques: We use specialized tools and techniques to gently remove foreign objects without causing damage to your teeth or gums. Common foreign objects may include food particles, dental floss, small objects, or pieces of dental restorations.
  • Preventing Further Irritation: Removal of the foreign object helps prevent further irritation or damage to your oral tissues. This reduces the risk of infection or inflammation.
  • Cleaning and Oral Care Guidance: After the object is removed, we provide instructions on proper oral hygiene practices. These include brushing and flossing techniques to prevent similar incidents in the future.
  • Examination for Damage: We examine your teeth and gums for any signs of damage caused by the lodged foreign object. If damage is detected, we’ll discuss appropriate treatment options to restore your oral health.
  • Pain Management: If you experience discomfort or pain due to a foreign object, we offer solutions to alleviate your symptoms and ensure your comfort during and after treatment.

What situations are considered dental emergencies?

Various types of dental emergencies can arise. This can include cracked, broken or displaced teeth, and dislodged fillings or crowns. You need immediate treatment if you’re experiencing severe pain, swelling, or profuse bleeding.

In the event of an emergency, you need to seek treatment promptly. The sooner you can reach the dentist’s office, the more favorable the outcome. Contact our 24-hour phone line at 858-799-0570 to initiate treatment as soon as possible.

Proudly serving Del Mar, Carmel Valley, Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach, and the greater San Diego area with urgent dental care.

If you have a dental emergency after hours or on weekends, call our emergency line at (858) 799-0570. But if our office is unavailable during after-hours or weekends, go to the nearest emergency dental clinic or hospital to get the care you need as soon as possible.

We understand cost concerns shouldn’t prevent you from getting urgent dental care. Our emergency exam fees are affordable and often similar to regular visit costs. We accept most PPO dental insurance plans and offer flexible payment options to ensure you get the immediate care you need. For our Del Mar and San Diego area patients with no insurance, we can discuss payment solutions during your emergency visit, letting you focus on what matters most – your dental health.

If you’re experiencing a severe toothache, start by gently flossing around the affected tooth to remove any debris that may be irritating. Rinse your mouth with warm saltwater to reduce swelling and discomfort. Avoid placing aspirin or other painkillers directly on the tooth or gums. This can cause irritation. Contact our dental office as soon as possible for an appointment to diagnose and treat the underlying cause of your toothache. In the meantime, over-the-counter pain relievers and applying a cold compress to the outside of your cheek can help manage pain and inflammation.

Occasional bleeding could be considered typical. However persistent bleeding may signal an underlying dental issue. Seek immediate dental care if this is the case.

Dental emergencies like severe toothaches, knocked-out or fractured teeth, abscesses, sudden swelling or bleeding in the mouth, and injuries to the gums or jaw require immediate attention. If you’re experiencing significant pain, bleeding, or difficulty eating or speaking due to a dental issue, it’s best to consider it an emergency and seek prompt professional care. Ignoring these symptoms can lead to further complications and worsen oral health.

Don’t let a lack of insurance prevent you from seeking emergency dental care. We offer flexible payment plans and financing options to make your treatment manageable. Our Del Mar office works with CareCredit and other financing providers to help you get the urgent care you need now and worry about the payments later. We’ll discuss all available payment solutions during your visit to find the best option for your situation.
