Emergency Dentistry

MyDentist is committed to providing care during dental emergencies, even if you are a new patient. If you require urgent dental attention, please get in touch with us without delay. Our team is ready to assist you.

Preventing dental emergencies involves proactive care and mindful habits. We advise treating your teeth with care and respect, as you have only one set of permanent teeth. Avoiding habits like nail-biting or chewing on inedible objects can significantly reduce the risk of dental issues.

Dietary choices also play a crucial role in maintaining dental health. Consuming hard or sticky candies and ice can cause wear and tear, potentially loosening teeth. It’s best to avoid certain foods requiring excessive chewing effort.

Athletes and children participating in sports should always wear protective mouthguards during physical activities. Custom-fitted mouthguards, available at our office, offer superior protection compared to store-bought options. Regular dental check-ups are essential to ensure your mouthguard fits correctly, as even minor teeth shifts can affect its effectiveness.

If you experience discomfort with a store-bought sports mouthguard, our dentists can create a custom-fit option for enhanced comfort and protection. We recommend bringing your mouthguard to each dental appointment for necessary adjustments.

By following these preventive measures, you can minimize dental visits and expenses. While MyDentist is here to assist you during emergencies, we prioritize helping you avoid them altogether.
