What Typically Happens During an Emergency Appointment at The Ivy Clinic
Depending on the type of emergency you have, we will locate and then treat the problem. If your pain is severe we will diagnose the issue and typically provide you with pain relief. There are times when it could be necessary to remove a pain-causing tooth. Don’t worry as your dentist will discuss this with you before it occurs.
If your tooth has been knocked out, we may be able to reinsert it with a splint on either side. The splint does need to be removed and to achieve that you will be asked to return to us within a couple of weeks.
If the tooth cannot be reinserted, normally, it is replaceable with either a dental implant or a bridge. We will talk about options when you come for your emergency appointment.
If there’s an abscess we will assess the infected area during your emergency appointment and try to remove the abscess. There are various ways we can remove the abscess, depending on where it is located in your mouth.
