Emergencies can strike at any moment, and dental situations are no exception. Understanding how to manage a dental emergency can make a significant difference in preserving your oral health. Whether experiencing a knocked-out tooth or severe toothache, having a clear plan is essential. At DiBona Dental Group, located at 1 Wayside Drive in Exeter, NH, our skilled team is dedicated to providing immediate assistance and expert guidance during such critical moments.

Here are some immediate steps to take in various dental emergencies:

• Knocked-Out Tooth: If a tooth gets knocked out, locate the tooth and handle it by the crown, avoiding touching the root. Rinse it gently with water and try to reinsert it back into the socket if possible. If you cannot do that, store it in a container with milk or saline solution and visit our office immediately.
• Severe Toothache: Rinse your mouth with warm salt water to alleviate discomfort. Avoid placing any aspirin directly on your gums as it can cause a chemical burn. If there is swelling, apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek. Contact DiBona Dental Group for further assistance.
• Broken Crown: If a crown breaks, try to keep the area clean. A temporary fix can be using dental cement to reattach or cover the area until you can see our team. It's crucial to reach out for an appointment as soon as possible.

Being prepared for a dental emergency can minimize damage and discomfort. At DiBona Dental Group, our experienced team, including Dr. Elizabeth DiBona and Dr. Nicholas Koren, is here to guide you with professional care when you need it most.
