TIPS TO HELP YOU STAY OUT OF AN EMERGENCY DENTIST CHAIR

 


We understand that as much as we'd like to see you at The Emergency Dentist Sydney, you may not want to. Avoiding a dental emergency is easier than you would think, and we've got five ideas to show you how.

1. Abnormalities should not be overlooked. 

A toothache could be an indication of a cavity, and ignoring it or putting up with it for longer than necessary could lead to a worse problem. The earlier you see the Emergency Dental Services, the more likely you are to avoid a more complicated procedure like a root canal. 

Aside from your teeth, you might notice something unusual with your gums or tongue, such as swelling or discoloration - there are a variety of explanations for this (some of which are serious) and it should be evaluated by a specialist as soon as possible. 

2. Follow consistent oral hygiene practice.

At this stage, it should be ingrained in your mind. 

Brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes, and don't forget to brush your tongue.

Flossing on a daily basis is essential - you can even do it while watching TV. 

After meals, rinse your mouth to remove plaque-causing material. 

Replace your toothbrush on a regular basis to avoid germs build-up and to guarantee that the bristles are in good working order so that you can clean properly. 

Following these instructions will maintain your teeth in excellent condition for the rest of your life.

3. Cut back on sugar intake 

We're not suggesting you eliminate sugar entirely (we realise it's in virtually everything these days), but excessive sugar consumption makes your teeth significantly more sensitive to cavities and damage.

Sugar creates an acidic environment in your mouth, which attacks your enamel and weakens your teeth.

4. When participating in sports, wear protective equipment (or even when you sleep) 

So many of the chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth we see at the Emergency Dentist Sydney happen on the sports field and could easily have been avoided by wearing a mouthguard. 

If you grind or clench your teeth at sleep, mouthguards may be beneficial. Without protection, you may notice that your teeth begin to wear away over time. 

5. Overcome dental phobias

A dental problem frequently becomes an emergency as a result of being ignored for too long. Waiting until you have no other option will likely make your anxiety worse, as you will be in considerably more agony than you would have been if you had gone to the dentist earlier. 

No matter how hard you try to avoid dental problems, if you do, please don't hesitate to contact us. We're available 24/7.
