Emergency service is recommended when one of the following painful complications arise:
- A tooth is cracked or dislodged by trauma, accident or eating,
- Paralyzing tooth ache,
- A damaged or dislodged dental appliance.
Left untreated, all of these situations can lead to tooth loss and emergency room exams for pain. Any medical doctor will inform you, however, that the cure for dental problems is a dentist! If you are experiencing an emergency dental situation near Loma Rica, the Yuba City Dentistry Group is ready to assist you.
Come Quickly!
Come to our clinic at 1052 Live Oak Blvd in Yuba City promptly if you notice any of the above problems. Telephone ahead at (530) 806-4977 so we can get ready for your visit. We put you first in line to see one of our Yuba City dentists.
Severe Tooth Ache
A sore tooth is caused by one of multiple different abnormalities. If a visual investigation or intraoral photography does not uncover the immediate complication, x-rays will uncover deeper causes. The source of tooth ache may include:
- Major tooth decay, affecting the root,
- Bacterial invasion, leading to abscess,
- Oral cysts, tumors or other abnormalities.
Our examination finds the abnormality and we proceed to the resolution. Toothaches do not go away by themselves or by taking painkillers. Finding the source of the pain ends your decay.
Broken Teeth and Appliances
If your tooth, crown, bridge, implant or other restoration has become loose or become dislodged, collect the parts, if possible, and come to our Yuba City office right away. Before you arrive, take the following steps:
- Wash the tooth or appliance carefully using whatever means are available, preferably water, saliva or the classic milk.
- Reinsert the tooth or part where it goes. If that’s not possible for a tooth, keep it between your cheek and gum.
- Bite down on a tea bag or wet rag to keep the tooth or device in place.
- Apply something cold to your cheek to keep down any swelling.
- Alert our office at (530) 806-4977 and promptly come to our dentist.
Repairing your tooth and your sanity is possible with emergency dental service at our nearby Yuba City office. We are set up to cure your abnormalities and send you back to your everyday life with emergency dentistry from the Yuba City Dentistry Group!
