WHAT IS A DENTAL EMERGENCY?



The best way to determine whether something is an emergency is by trusting your gut. If you feel like you’re experiencing an emergency, you’re probably right! Always reach out to us as soon as possible if you’re worried about your teeth or gums. 


The following are all common examples of emergency dentistry:


  • One or more teeth that have been loosened or knocked out completely.
  • A tooth that is bleeding heavily.
  • Extreme pain in the teeth or gums.
  • Painful swelling.


Even if you think you can handle the pain of these problems, don’t wait to be treated! Our team at Daybreak Dental is standing by to help you as soon as we can and prevent larger problems down the road.

WHAT SHOULD I DO DURING A DENTAL EMERGENCY?


The first step is always to call your dentist here at Daybreak Dental. From there, you should take any necessary steps to reduce your pain and make yourself feel comfortable. 


If you’re experiencing pain or swelling, it’s a good idea to apply a cold compress to the area. If you’re bleeding, stem the bleeding with a clean piece of fabric or gauze that won’t disintegrate like toilet paper or tissues might. 


Whenever possible, bring a knocked-out tooth to the dentist with you. While you wait for your appointment, store the tooth in your cheek or in milk—not water—if possible.

I recommend Daybreak Dental!  The service is top-notch and accommodating, the staff is very personable and knowledgeable, and the office is easy to access on SoCo with free parking. I also appreciate that both dentists I've seen treat me like a real person, are very kind, and are up to date on the latest technologies. The hygienists are awesome too. They are interested in my dental health and are not pushy in any way.  The office environment is very nice too!

Highly recommend!!!I just moved to the area and I really like this dentist office. They’re happy to work with you and make things affordable. There is a great attention to detail and care with interaction. I really appreciate how everything was explained to me and above all I really appreciate how friendly everyone at this dentist office was.

I am extremely glad I chose Daybreak Dental as my dentist after moving from Florida. They are always there to provide the best experience, welcome you with a smile, are the nicest staff in any office that I have been to in a very long time. Immediate rapport and relationships have been built and they truly care about their clients. Best in Austin, hands down.

Dr. Mortensen and his staff are really in tune to one's needs and concerns. I've been to them three times, the last time for crown replacements. The entire process was relatively comfortable and painless. The crowns fit perfectly when they were applied. I particularly like the way they make you feel that you are the most important client. I am very happy with the work and the patient care.
