What Are Traumatic Dental Injuries?

Traumatic dental injuries refer to damage caused by accidents or sports-related incidents, such as dislodged, fractured, or avulsed (knocked-out) teeth. These injuries require immediate attention to prevent further complications and to preserve your natural teeth. At Sterling Endodontics, we provide specialized care for both adults and children, ensuring your teeth, gums, and overall oral health are in the best hands.

Our services include treating dislodged and avulsed teeth and managing pediatric dental injuries. We combine advanced diagnostic tools with skilled care to deliver painless treatment while restoring function and aesthetics.

Frequently Asked Questions About Traumatic Dental Injuries

What should I do if I knock out a tooth?

If you knock out a tooth, act quickly. Hold the tooth by the crown (not the root) and try to place it back into the socket. If this isn’t possible, store the tooth in milk or hank's balanced salt solution and see a dental professional immediately. Time is critical in these cases.

Can a dislodged tooth be saved?

Yes, in many cases, prompt treatment can save a dislodged tooth. Our endodontists will carefully reposition the tooth and evaluate the surrounding tissues for damage. The endodontist may place a splint to stabilize the tooth during the healing process.

What are the signs that I should seek urgent care for a dental injury?

Seek urgent care for a dental injury if you experience severe pain, visible damage to the teeth, excessive bleeding, swelling, or a loose tooth following trauma. Quick treatment maximizes the chance of saving the tooth and preventing further complications.

How are traumatic dental injuries treated in children?

Due to their developing teeth, children’s dental injuries require specialized care. Our team at Sterling Endodontics provides gentle, expert care to manage pediatric dental injuries, ensuring their comfort and addressing their unique needs.

How does Sterling Endodontics ensure pain-free treatment?

We prioritize patient comfort through modern techniques and equipment, such as digital X-rays and advanced anesthetics. Our experienced team understands the anxiety that dental procedures can cause and is dedicated to providing a painless experience in a calming environment.

What if I delay treatment for a traumatic dental injury?

Delayed treatment can lead to complications like infection, tooth loss, or damage to surrounding teeth and tissues. Therefore, it is essential to seek professional care as soon as possible.

Do you offer emergency appointments for dental injuries?

Yes, Sterling Endodontics offers same-day emergency appointments to address urgent dental injuries. We understand the importance of timely care and are here to provide relief and treatment when you need it most.

Can I prevent traumatic dental injuries?

You can reduce the risk of traumatic dental injuries by wearing protective mouthguards during sports and avoiding behaviors like chewing on ice or hard objects. Regular dental check-ups also ensure that any potential issues are addressed promptly.
