You will most likely spend much more money trying to fix a bigger problem. Don’t wait for the problem to get big, instead, save yourself the harm and undertake the problem. Dr. Kezian is an emergency dentist who can help you with your dental related problems. Call an emergency dentistry on time and keep things simple.

Mentioned below are some treatments performed by an emergency dentist.

Root Canal Pain:

·         A tooth’s nerve can develop into an infection due to a deep cavity, a very large filling, a crack within the tooth, or a traumatic injury.

·         If you feel a throbbing, pulsating kind of pain coming from your tooth, then that is one of the general signs that your tooth might need a root canal. Along with severe pain you can also experience a lingering sensitivity when coming in contact with hot or cold temperatures. You can have a pimple or swelling near the gums and sometimes your tooth can become discolored. If you notice any of these symptoms, it is vital to contact your dentist.
·         During a root canal, the nerve and the pulp chamber within the nerve of the tooth are taken out and cleaned out to stop decay from growing further. After a tooth has already emerged from the gums, the nerves only purpose is for sensation. So, the absence of the nerve will not be harmful to you in any way. On the opposing side, it will save you from pain.

Cavities:

  • Certain types of bacteria can attach to your enamel and start to multiply. These bacteria, along with the combination of plaque on your teeth and sugars from what you eat, can turn into a cavity.
  • It is important to keep up with and maintain your dental check-ups because cavities don’t always cause pain. Sometimes the pain kicks in when the cavity is very large and starts affecting the nerve of the tooth. Don’t let it get to that stage; be preventative and see your dentist routinely.

Extractions:

·         A dentist should be very skilled and knowledgeable when it comes to extractions. Extractions can be done when tooth decay has harmed so much tooth structure that the tooth can not be refurbished. One other cause can be a fractured tooth that can not be saved. Another reason can be impacted wisdom teeth, or wisdom teeth that are challenging. In addition, extractions can be done for orthodontic reasons as well. Whatever the reason though, an extraction should always be the last alternative if you have a conservative dentist like Dr. Kezian.

·         After a comprehensive extraction, your dentist and the staff should give you accurate post operative instructions and guidance to make sure you are comfortable when you go home.

If you have any emergencies, call Dr. Kezian and together you alleviate your dental problems.
