If you are experiencing severe tooth pain, swelling, trauma, or infection, seeking urgent treatment is essential to prevent complications.
A dental abscess is a localised infection that develops in or around a tooth due to bacterial build-up. Treatment depends on the severity and type of infection, with the primary goals being to remove the infection, relieve pain, and prevent further spread.
Regular dental check-ups allow our team to identify early signs of decay, gum disease, or structural issues and address them before they worsen.
Antibiotics: If the infection shows signs of spreading or systemic involvement, antibiotics may be prescribed to control bacterial growth.
Drainage: An incision may be made to drain accumulated pus, relieving pressure and discomfort. Local anaesthesia is typically used to ensure comfort.
Root Canal Treatment: If the infection originates inside the tooth (pulp), a root canal may be required to remove infected tissue, clean the canals, and seal the tooth.
Tooth Extraction: If the tooth is severely damaged and cannot be preserved, removal may be necessary. The area is cleaned thoroughly and appropriate aftercare instructions are provided.
Dental injuries require fast and accurate care to protect long-term oral health.
Minor cracks limited to the outer layer. Treatment may involve smoothing rough edges or simple bonding.
Damage extends into the dentin layer. Treatment may involve fillings, bonding, or crowns, depending on severity.
The pulp is exposed. Treatment often includes root canal therapy followed by a crown.
Root fractures occur beneath the gum line. Treatment depends on location and severity. Options may include splinting, root canal treatment, or extraction.
Concussion: Tooth is tender but remains in position. Monitoring is usually sufficient.
Subluxation:Tooth is mobile but not displaced. A splint may be used for stabilisation.
Extrusive Luxation: Tooth is partially displaced outward. It is repositioned and stabilised, sometimes requiring root canal treatment.
Lateral Luxation: Tooth is displaced sideways. Repositioning and splinting are required.
Intrusive Luxation: Tooth is pushed into the bone. Treatment may involve monitoring, orthodontic repositioning, surgery, or extraction.
If possible, the tooth should be gently reinserted immediately. If not, store it in milk, saline, or a tooth preservation kit and seek urgent dental care. Prompt treatment significantly improves the chances of saving the tooth.
