Good mental health is important, and one way to achieving it is to push one’s boundaries and take risks. But sometimes doing so, like, for example, taking part in contact sports, can lead to injuries such as chipped and broken teeth, or even having teeth knocked out. When this happens, it is important to visit an emergency dentist. Beaconsfield’s Garden View Dental Care offers emergency dental care.

In Beaconsfield, emergency dentists at Garden View do their utmost to schedule an appointment on the same day as you call.

Reasons to visit an emergency dentist in Buckinghamshire

Depending on how serious your injury is, treatment from an emergency dentist can make a big difference to you making a full recovery. This is especially true if you have had one or more of your teeth are knocked out. The sooner they are re-implanted in your jaw, the more likely they are to mesh with the bone again.

What is the procedure at an appointment with the emergency dentist in Buckinghamshire?

Our emergency dentist in Buckinghamshire will thoroughly examine the injured area, and may also use x-rays, to make an accurate assessment of the damage sustained.

The emergency dentist will use a local anaesthetic to numb the pain, depending on its severity, and will sterilise the injured area to minimise the risk of infection. Depending on the case, the emergency dentist will restore the damaged teeth, either temporarily or permanently.

If the damage to the teeth is too severe, the emergency dentist will extract them and discuss prosthetic treatment with you. This may involve removable dentures, or fixed dental implants. A dental implant is a small screw, usually made of titanium, which is permanently fixed into the jaw where the tooth used to be. An artificial tooth, bridge or crown is later screwed on to the implant. Implants are a long-term solution to lost teeth.
