Urgent Dental Care in Malvern
Pain doesn’t wait, and neither should you. At Malvern Family Dental, we prioritize emergency cases to ensure you get relief from pain and the professional care you need as quickly as possible. Whether it’s a broken tooth, a lost filling, or severe swelling, our team is here to help.
What Qualifies as a Dental Emergency?
Not every dental issue is an emergency, but if you are experiencing any of the following, you should contact us immediately:
Knocked-out tooth
Time is critical; a tooth can often be saved if treated within the hour.
Severe Toothache
Throbbing pain that prevents sleep or daily activities.
Facial Swelling
This can indicate a serious infection or abscess.
Fractured or Broken Teeth
Especially if the break is large or causing pain.
Lost Crown or Filling
Which can leave sensitive nerves exposed.
Emergency First Aid: What to do Now
Knocked-out Tooth
Handle the tooth by the crown (top), not the root. If dirty, rinse gently with milk. Try to place it back in the socket. If not possible, keep it in a small container of milk or saliva.
Bitten Tongue or Lip
Clean the area gently with a cloth and apply cold compresses to reduce swelling. If bleeding is profuse and won’t stop, head to the clinic or ER.
Toothache
Rinse with warm salt water. Use dental floss to ensure no food is trapped. Do not place aspirin directly on the gum, as it may burn the tissue.
Object Caught in Teeth
Try to gently remove it with floss. Never use a sharp or pointed instrument to poke at the area.
