Why Dental Emergencies Occur
Sports injuries and car accidents are leading causes of dental traumas. Such unforeseen events can result in chipped, fractured, or even lost teeth. An unexpected collision during a friendly basketball game in your backyard or an unfortunate encounter with a steering wheel can have damaging effects on your teeth.
Routine activities, too, can sometimes lead to dental issues. That tiny cavity you ignored could now be a painful abyss needing a root canal. Or, your slightly irritated gums might have advanced to painful gum disease. An untreated infection could escalate to an abscess, demanding immediate attention.

Frequently Asked
Questions
What is emergency dentistry?
Emergency dentistry addresses sudden and unexpected dental issues that require immediate attention. At Marietta Roswell Dental Care, we ensure patients receive quick and effective treatment to alleviate pain and prevent further complications.
How do I know if I need emergency dental care?
Common indicators include severe toothaches, knocked-out teeth, significant chips or cracks in teeth, lost fillings or crowns, persistent gum bleeding, and dental abscesses. Always reach out to our team if you're uncertain about your situation.
I've had a tooth knocked out. What should I do?
Immediately rinse the tooth in warm water without scrubbing. Place it in a cup of milk and bring it with you to our office. We will attempt to reinsert and save your natural tooth.
How can I relieve dental pain at home?
Apply a cold compress to reduce swelling and take over-the-counter pain relievers. However, these are temporary measures. It's crucial to schedule an emergency dental visit to address the underlying issue.
Are sports-related injuries common in emergency dentistry?
Yes, sports, even backyard games, can lead to dental injuries. We recommend wearing mouthguards for protection, but if an injury does occur, call us immediately.
I was in a car accident. Should I see a dentist?
After any car accident, it's essential to first visit an emergency room to rule out general injuries. Following that, you should schedule an appointment with us to ensure there's no dental damage.
How can I prevent dental emergencies?
Regular dental check-ups, cleanings, and maintaining a healthy diet can reduce the risk. Using mouthguards during sports and avoiding hard foods can also prevent unexpected dental issues.
How much will an emergency dental visit cost?
The cost varies based on the treatment required. Don't let cost concerns prevent you from seeking necessary care. At Marietta Roswell Dental Care, we offer various financing options to ensure you get the treatment you need.
Do you accept walk-ins for dental emergencies?
While we strive to accommodate all emergency cases, it's always best to call ahead so we can prepare for your arrival and treat you more efficiently.
What if my child has a dental emergency?
Children's dental emergencies are treated with the same urgency as adults. If your child experiences a dental emergency, call us immediately, and we'll guide you on the next steps.
