<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nAnd it is true that in most emergency dental\ndepartments, the main reason patients attend is soreness or discomfort under\none of their teeth due to the formation of an abscess or even an impacted\ntooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, you may not be aware that there are\nmany typically non-painful issues that can occur in your mouth that will\nrequire same-day treatment from an emergency team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At\nAura Dental<\/strong>, we are exceedingly\nproud of our emergency dentist St\nJohn\u2019s Wood<\/a>, who can offer our patients same-day appointments. We set aside\nappointments every day for dental emergencies, so you can rest assured that when\nyou come to us with an emergency issue, we will see you immediately. Great\nstuff!<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, what are some less uncomfortable dental\npresentations that require a same-day trip to see our dentist St John\u2019s\nWood<\/strong>? Read on to find out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ulcers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Many people have had an ulcer on their inner\nlip, tongue or gums when they have been ill or under stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, why would you need to see our emergency\ndentist St John\u2019s Wood<\/strong> for a dental ulcer?\nWell, if the ulcer is larger than a 5 pence piece, persistently bleeding or\nrecurring in the same part of your mouth every month or so, then this can be an\nearly indicator of oral cancer. So, if you suffer from any of these symptoms,\ncontact our team as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cracks and chips<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A crack or chip in your teeth is unlikely to\ncause discomfort unless it is severe. But this is one of those conditions that\nyou will need to see our same-day dental team about and have repaired. If left\nuntreated, cracks or chips can attract bacteria to the area, forming cavities\nand abscesses. So, rather than waiting for that very unpleasant situation, get\nit dealt with as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lumps<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There are a few things more unnerving than\nbrushing your teeth and finding a lump or bump. And while in most cases, these\nare harmless and may be a sign of mild gingivitis, if they are persistent or\ngrowing excessively quickly, then you need to see a same-day dental team to\nhave it assessed. As mentioned earlier, lumps and bumps in the mouth are\nusually harmless, but just in case there is an underlying concern, such as a\nhistory of oral cancer, you need to see our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Loose teeth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Loose teeth very rarely occur on their own\nunless there has been blunt force trauma to the face. However, if you have had\nsevere gingivitis for some time and are now noticing loose teeth, this will\nneed to be assessed. Depending on the health of the gums and any surrounding\nteeth, we may be able to splint this tooth in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Detached brace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Not so much of an emergency as you may think,\nbut a detached brace or where a bracket has come away from a tooth does in fact\nconstitute a dental emergency. This is because it can slow down orthodontic\ntreatment and may actually cut the inside of your mouth or tongue, depending on\nwhere the brace is located. So, if your braces are loose, you need to see our\nteam.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If you were to ask the majority of people what they attributed to a dental emergency, most of them would say discomfort.
