Urgent Dental Care Without Judgment
Waking up with a throbbing toothache or breaking a tooth during a meal is stressful. When you are hurting, you should not have to wait days for an appointment or worry about being judged if it has been years since your last dental visit. Our priority is simple: stop your discomfort today and fix the underlying issue safely, whether you need immediate relief or long-term solutions like permanent dental implants.
To make your emergency visit completely stress free, our team communicates fluently in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. You will be able to explain your pain comfortably and understand your treatment options perfectly.
Dental Emergencies We Treat in Riverside
We provide comprehensive urgent treatments for all types of oral trauma and sudden pain. Dr. Vazquez evaluates your condition using rapid digital imaging to identify the source of your distress.
- Severe Toothaches: Constant throbbing, sharp shooting pain, or intense sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures.
- Knocked Out Teeth: Adult teeth that have been completely dislodged due to an impact or sports injury.
- Broken or Cracked Teeth: Structural damage to a tooth that exposes the sensitive inner nerves.
- Abscesses and Infections: Swelling along the gums, facial swelling, visible pus, or a foul taste in your mouth.
- Damaged Dental Work: Lost fillings, loose crowns, or broken bridges and dentures that prevent you from chewing.
Emergency Dental First Aid Guidelines
While you are on your way to our Riverside practice, follow these critical steps to preserve your tooth structure and minimize swelling:
- Knocked Out Tooth: Handle the tooth only by the top crown, never by the roots. Rinse it gently with water if it is dirty but do not scrub it. Place it back in the socket if possible, or store it in a small container of milk to keep the root cells alive.
- Broken or Fractured Tooth: Rinse your mouth thoroughly with warm water. Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek to reduce swelling and manage discomfort.
- Severe Toothache: Use warm water to rinse your mouth and gently use dental floss to clear any trapped food debris. Do not place aspirin or pain relievers directly against your gum tissue, as this causes chemical burns.
