Unfortunately, dental emergencies do not notify you before occurring! That is why people find it difficult to tackle the situation when a dental emergency hits them. However, you can avoid such situation by getting in touch with our dental team at Westheimer Lakes Dental at 281-394-7581 right away and we will be right there for your help.
If you have jaw pain it can be caused from the joint in the jaw called the temporomandibular joint caused by trauma or grinding. It can cause limited opening or the feeling that your bite is off.
If you are experiencing tooth pain then first of all we would suggest you to rinse with warm water thoroughly. Floss around the tooth gently for removing any food particle that might have been stuck between your teeth or under the gum line. If you still feel the pain contact our dentists immediately and they will treat you as soon as possible.
Is your gum swelling and hurting badly? Then it is a dental emergency that needs to be treated as soon as possible! Our dentists are just a call away. You should not neglect pain or swelling of gums as these can be symptoms of an abscess or infection formed in the gum tissue or root of a tooth. Therefore, a proper dental examination must be done to identify the underlying cause!
