Dealing with a dental emergency in Chicago, IL (Fulton Market)? Here’s how we can help.
- If you’re experiencing a toothache or pain, especially if it’s keeping you from eating, come in right away. While a visit is needed to create a care plan, fillings, root canals and emergency tooth extractions are all common treatments to help alleviate your pain.
- When a tooth is loose or knocked out, fast treatment is key to saving it. Come in quickly, within the first hour if possible. If your tooth was knocked out, handle it gently by the crown while avoiding touching the root of your tooth. If possible, gently rinse it and place it back in your mouth. Gently bite down on the loose tooth until you’re able to come in.
- When you come in, we’ll assess the area that’s bleeding to prescribe a personalized care plan. Our providers can help with a wide range of common issues. For instance, bleeding or swollen gums are often caused by a gum infection or gum disease, such as periodontal disease. While uncomfortable and sometimes painful, these issues are treatable, especially if caught early.
- If you’re having a hard time breathing or swallowing, please visit your local emergency room. If you’re experiencing swelling or pain, call us immediately. To address your pain and stop the infection, we’ll assess your mouth and create a customized care plan. To alleviate pain or discomfort before coming in: Rinse your mouth with warm salt water, Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek, Take over-the-counter pain relievers.
