It always seems like more dental emergencies happen here in Sacramento in the summer as opposed to any other season.
Maybe it’s because kids are out of school or from people just being more active and enjoying the outdoors in the warmer months.
While we usually don’t plan on having a dental emergency, getting a tooth knocked out is not something anyone would want to plan anyway – hockey players & MMA fighters aside, but we can take essential steps to limit the severity of the emergency and certainly the pain or costs associated.
Sacramento Emergency Dentist Says Stay Calm!
If you happen to find yourself a victim of a dental emergency, try your best to remain calm above all else.
We understand that a traumatic injury to your face or mouth could invoke fear, dread, & pain but do your best not to panic – and if you’re helping someone make sure they don’t start to panic.
Staying calm could help reduce additional injury and more importantly help communication between patient and either 911 or a Arden Square Sacramento emergency dentist.
Can You Prepare for a Dental Emergency?
Maybe we can’t prepare for a specific dental injury, but we sure can envision how we would deal with and react to certain emergency dental situations.
Say a tooth gets knocked out at a softball game, what should you do with it?
Pick it up, put it in some milk if you have it available, and make an emergency dental appointment with your Sacramento dentist! [Read more…] about Sacramento Emergency Dentist at Arden Square
