Dental emergencies can happen when you least expect it. It is always a good idea to have a plan in place so that you are prepared should anything happen to your families oral health. Dental emergencies can seem scary, but with high-quality dental care from the compassionate team at Manassas Smiles, you can feel confident that you and your family are in good hands.
Tips & Tricks: Dealing With a Dental Emergency
- Establish A Dentist-Patient Relationship Now: It is good to have a general dentist established prior to a dental emergency. If you have not been to the dentist in a long time, schedule a routine health exam now. Having a pre-existing relationship with a dentist in the event of an emergency can help put you at ease. You know who to call, where you are going, and how you will be cared for. Manassas Smiles is accepting new patients of all ages from Manassas, Centreville, Merryfield, Clifton, Gainsville, Dale City, Warrenton and surrounding communities.If you are experiencing a dental emergency and have not visited Manassas Smiles previously, do not worry. We accept new patients without an appointment in the event of a dental emergency.
- Prevention Is The Best Approach: Of course, not all dental emergencies can be prevented, but we find many can. If you or your child play sports of any kind, ask Dr. Hassan about a custom sports mouthguard. Sports-related injuries are the leading cause of tooth loss in adolescents.Visiting the dentist twice a year is a good preventative measure for avoiding dental emergencies. Routine dental health exams can also help prevent lost or damaged crowns or fillings and can prevent advanced tooth decay. Dr. Hassan will screen your teeth at every exam to ensure everything is in good working order.
- Remain Calm & Call:Â If life-threatening, always call 911. For toothaches, lost teeth, broken crowns or other non-life threating dental emergencies, call our Manassas, VA dentist office anytime, any day.
