What are the symptoms of an infected nerve in a tooth?
An infected tooth can cause significant pain and discomfort and if left untreated can lead to serious health problems. Symptoms of an infected tooth can include severe toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, swelling in the gums or face, bad breath or a bad taste in the mouth, fever, and swollen lymph nodes. These symptoms may indicate that the infection has spread to the surrounding tissues and bone, which can lead to more severe health issues if not treated urgently.
What is a dental emergency?
A dental emergency is any dental issue that requires immediate attention from a dentist to alleviate pain, prevent further damage, or save a tooth. Examples of dental emergencies include severe toothache or jaw pain, facial swelling, bleeding gums, knocked-out teeth, broken or chipped teeth, lost fillings or crowns, and abscesses. In some cases, dental emergencies may also involve injury to the mouth or jaw. It's important to seek prompt treatment for dental emergencies to prevent further damage, avoid infection, and relieve pain. If you're experiencing any of these symptoms or any other dental issues that concern you, contact the team at Bespoke Smiles Wanaka immediately for advice.
What happens on the day?
If you're experiencing a dental emergency, it's important to seek urgent dental care as soon as possible. When you book an emergency dental visit with a suspected infected tooth, broken or damaged tooth or trauma to the mouth from an accident, we will examine the area and take x-rays to help us determine the cause of your condition and offer options to get you out of pain and the area restored. Depending on the issue, time available and your budget, we may begin to treat an infected nerve, prescribe antibiotics, temporarily repair a damaged tooth or remove the tooth completely on the day.
