When Do You Need Emergency Dental Care?
Dental emergencies require prompt attention to relieve pain, prevent infection from spreading, and save teeth when possible. At MIŠKA we prioritise emergencies and aim to see urgent cases as soon as possible. Call +91 93808 43143 to reach us.
Common Dental Emergencies
- Severe Toothache – Possible infection or abscess. We assess, provide pain relief, and plan definitive treatment (RCT or extraction).
- Knocked-Out Tooth (Avulsion) – Time-critical. If you act quickly, we may be able to re-implant. Keep the tooth in milk or saline; do not touch the root.
- Broken or Chipped Tooth – Sharp edges can cut tongue/cheek. We can smooth, bond, or temporarily cover until full restoration.
- Lost Filling or Crown – Exposed tooth can be sensitive and prone to damage. Temporary measures and replacement planned.
- Abscess or Swelling – Infection can spread. We drain if needed, prescribe antibiotics, and schedule follow-up treatment.
- Bleeding After Extraction – Gauze pressure, avoid rinsing. If bleeding doesn't stop, contact us or visit.
- Trauma to Mouth or Jaw – Assessment for fractures, tooth damage, soft tissue injury. Referral to hospital if needed for severe trauma.
What to Do Before You Reach Us
- Knocked-out tooth: Pick up by crown only, rinse gently if dirty, place in milk or saline. Get to us within 30–60 minutes.
- Toothache: Rinse with warm salt water, floss to remove trapped food. Avoid placing aspirin on the tooth.
- Broken tooth: Rinse mouth, save fragments if possible, apply cold compress for swelling.
- Bleeding: Apply gauze with pressure for 15–20 minutes. Sit upright.
