Dental Trauma West End

Urgent Care When You Need It Most

Dental trauma refers to any injury to the teeth, gums, or supporting bones of the face. Whether it’s a knocked-out tooth from a sporting accident, a chipped tooth from a fall, or severe pain after an unexpected impact, dental trauma can be stressful and frightening.

At My Dental Care @ West End, we understand that these situations require immediate, calm, and expert attention. We prioritise emergency dental trauma cases to ensure the best possible outcome for your long-term oral health.

What to do in a Dental Emergency:

Stay Calm: While stressful, keeping a clear head is important.

Contact Us Immediately: Call us on (07) 3846 2548 and clearly explain that you have experienced dental trauma. We will provide instructions and arrange for you to be seen as quickly as possible.

If a Tooth is Knocked Out (Avulsed): Handle the tooth only by the crown (the chewing surface), not the root. If possible, gently place it back into the socket. If this is not possible, place it in a container of milk or saliva and bring it with you immediately. Time is critical for successful re-implantation.

Our Approach to Trauma Care:

When you arrive, our focus is twofold: pain management and rapid, expert treatment.

Gentle Assessment: We will quickly and carefully assess the injury, using digital imaging to check for unseen damage to the tooth root or bone structure.

Pain Relief and Sedation: Dental trauma is painful. We will ensure immediate pain relief and can offer Sedation Dentistry options like “Happy Gas” to help manage your anxiety and discomfort while we work.

Comprehensive Treatment: From re-implanting avulsed teeth and repairing chips with tooth-coloured fillings to performing root canals or stabilising severe damage, our team is equipped to handle a wide range of dental injuries with precision and care.

Don’t wait. In the event of dental trauma, contact My Dental Care @ West End immediately. We are here to support you through the emergency and restore your smile.
