Most dental emergencies happen when you least expect them, leaving you in pain and feeling distressed. No matter if it is something as simple as a lost filling or something more problematic like an abscess or severe tooth pain, we understand that some dental problems cannot wait. 

At Arden Dental Care in Sacramento, CA, we offer emergency dentistry services and make every effort to schedule your appointments on the same day.

What Is Emergency Dentistry?

Emergency dentistry focuses on delivering immediate care and dental treatments to provide relief to patients with dental emergencies. Many times, dental emergencies can be severe and have the potential to threaten the patient’s overall oral health. 

Benefits of Emergency Dental Care 

Slowing Progression of Oral Problems 

Many mild oral issues can advance to dental emergencies. When an oral condition is left untreated, its severity and complexity can increase. The problem is often advanced by the time you seek emergency dental care. This is why urgent dental care is vital.

Saving Your Natural Teeth 

Situations that can lead to you losing your natural teeth are considered dental emergencies and must be addressed as soon as possible. Even a knocked-out tooth can be salvaged and reinserted if you seek emergency care at the right time. 

Relieving Pain 

Many dental emergencies cause a lot of pain. An emergency dentist can identify the underlying cause of the pain and offer efficient relief. 

Restoring Oral Functions 

A dental emergency can partially or fully restrict your oral functions due to pain, swelling, extensive bleeding, or other causes. In such cases, the role of emergency dental care is to ensure that your oral functions are fully restored. This includes repairing or replacing oral appliances, restoring the affected structures, and treating any symptoms that inhibit optimal oral functionality.

Reducing the Risk of Infection 

An infection in your oral cavity has the potential to spread rapidly. Emergency dentists treat the root cause of infection preventing further risks.
