You should not wait until you experience severe pain to schedule a dental appointment. It is advisable to see a dentist if you notice tooth pain, sensitive teeth, bleeding gums, bad breath, loose teeth, a broken filling, or visible changes to your teeth or gums. Regular checkups and dental hygiene appointments are also important to detect problems early and help avoid more extensive treatments whenever possible.
If you experience tooth pain, swelling, chipped teeth, loose teeth, or a dental injury, you should contact the dental practice as soon as possible. Briefly explain over the phone what happened, how long the symptoms have been present, and whether there is any pain, bleeding, or swelling. This helps the team assess how urgently an appointment is needed.
If a tooth has been knocked out, do not touch the root, do not brush the tooth, and keep it moist whenever possible, for example in a tooth preservation kit or in milk. Then seek dental care immediately.
