• Dental Pain - Various reasons can be responsible for dental pain: an infected nerve in the teeth; dental decay; and if the sensitive part of the tooth is exposed due to gum recession. Should you continue to experience pain, it is advised that you go for dental checkup and treatment.
• Facial swelling - Teeth problems can cause the face, especially the cheeks to swell. Other reasons for this problem can be an infected skin cyst, or blocked salivary glands. But if there's swelling around the gum plus toothache, then the issue can be a dental issue. Facial swelling that has lasted for a while is normally a symptom of infection. Treatment with antibiotics may be needed.
• Broken tooth - Heavily decayed teeth can easily break! If you have your teeth filled or your fillings have deteriorated, it can also cause broken teeth. Serious injury to the front teeth can affect your smile and teeth function. This issue requires an emergency dentist.

What should I do if I have a broken denture?

It is very simple for our dental experts to check out and fix your broken denture. We recommend that you seek professional help for your denture as attempting to fix and repair them yourself can make things complicated.

What should I do if my tooth is knocked out?

It is highly important to immediately replace a knocked-out tooth into its socket as quickly as possible. To do this, all dirt and debris must be taken out. It is also apt not to touch the root to protect the root surface. You can even put the broken tooth in cold milk and seek immediate dental care.

Should your tooth be slightly displaced, it is very crucial to put it back in its correct position since it can alter the normal way of biting. Based on this, we advise that you allow a dentist to do it for you.

I have a fractured tooth, what should I do?

The extent to which a tooth fractures can go from a small chip to a severe fracture from the base. Regardless of how fractured or chipped the tooth is, we recommend that you get dental help as quickly as you can to get expert attention. An X-ray may be needed to confirm a tooth fracture since it may not be very visible.

If the crack is a minor one, it can be easily fixed that same day at our clinic. We do advise that you visit a dentist if you develop tooth sensitivity (your teeth becomes sensitive to hot and cold things); this implies that the nerve is infected. Meanwhile, avoid eating anything until the condition has been professionally diagnosed as doing so might make the matter worse.
