What is a dental emergency?

Dr. Palka Sawhney Sharma is a dentist in the community who describes a dental emergency as a situation that arises that may require immediate care and attention from a professional. Below are just a few of the more common dental emergencies seen at her practice:

• Cuts or trauma to the tongue or soft tissues of the mouth
• Knocked-out teeth
• Chipped or cracked teeth
• Loose or lost restorations including dental crowns, bridges, and porcelain veneers
• Lost dental fillings
• Broken appliances such as night guards, partial dentures, or full dentures

When a situation occurs that may require immediate assistance, it is a good idea to call the team at Lake Chaparral Dental Care. Our team can advise you as to what can be done until you can get into the office, or we may direct you to the local emergency room if it is a more serious medical emergency. Whenever possible, we get patients into our office for a same-day appointment to treat the problem.
