But what if you encounter a problem on a holiday, or a weekend? We are still your &#8220;emergency dentist near me&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #808080;\">How to know if its a dental emergency?<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Are you in severe pain? Severe pain and bleeding are signs of an emergency.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Have you lost a tooth? Fast treatment can potentially save a tooth.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Do you have loose teeth? Adults should never lose teeth. A loose tooth, even without pain, is a serious problem.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Do you have an infection? An abscess or serious infection in your mouth can be potentially life-threatening, and treatment should not wait. You may notice swelling or knots on your gums or swelling around the face.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Are you bleeding from the mouth? This is a potential sign of an emergency.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #808080;\">The knocked tooth<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Teeth that have been knocked-out from their sockets are among the most common emergencies that we deal with at our clinic. The most common cause of knocked-out teeth is sports-related injuries, but there are numerous possible reasons that it can happen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">A knocked-out tooth requires immediate attention, and an appointment should be made with our office right away.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #808080;\">The cracked tooth<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">A cracked tooth is not as serious as a knocked out tooth, but it still requires an emergency dental visit. As soon as you are able, rinse your mouth out with warm water. You should rinse until you can no longer see blood. Once your mouth is clean, apply a clean, cold compress to the area to limit the amount of swelling that occurs as well as the amount of pain you suffer. Cracks and chips in teeth allow bacteria to get under the tooth, which can lead to a serious infection if left untreated.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-lg-4 col-md-12 sidebar md-mt-5\">\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mintfamilydentalpa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/dental-emergency.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mintfamilydentalpa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/dental-emergency2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"399\" height=\"266\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mintfamilydentalpa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Dental-Emergencies-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"401\" height=\"229\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":98,"template":"","class_list":["post-581","provide_health","type-provide_health","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Emergency Dental Care - Mint Family Dental Pottstown.
