Wisdom Tooth Pain
Wisdom tooth pain can be a result of several factors, including impaction, infection, or gum inflammation. The pain may range from a dull ache to intense throbbing. Applying a cold compress and rinsing with warm saltwater can help alleviate discomfort temporarily. Over-the-counter pain relievers can also provide relief. However, it is advisable to consult a dentist to determine the underlying cause and explore treatment options. They may recommend removal if necessary. It is crucial to address wisdom tooth pain promptly to prevent further complications and ensure oral health.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are protective caps placed over damaged or weakened teeth. They can restore the tooth's shape, size, and strength while improving its appearance. The process involves preparing the tooth by removing any decay or damaged areas, shaping it to accommodate the crown, and taking impressions for custom fabrication. Temporary crowns may be placed while the permanent one is being made. Once ready, the crown is cemented onto the tooth. Dental crowns can effectively protect and support teeth that have undergone significant decay, fractures, or root canal treatment. They also enhance the aesthetics of the smile by improving the color, shape, and alignment of the tooth. Regular oral hygiene and dental visits are important to maintain the longevity of dental crowns.
Emergency Tooth Extraction
Emergency tooth extraction is a dental procedure performed when a tooth is severely damaged, infected, or causing intense pain. The extraction may be necessary to prevent the spread of infection or alleviate unbearable discomfort. During the procedure, the dentist administers anesthesia to numb the area and carefully removes the affected tooth. Afterward, they provide instructions for post-extraction care, such as applying gauze to control bleeding and prescribing pain medication if needed. It is important to follow the dentist's guidelines for a smooth recovery. Tooth extraction may be followed by options like dental implants or bridges to restore the functionality and appearance of the missing tooth. Regular dental check-ups are advised to maintain optimal oral health after an emergency tooth extraction.
